research Clinical and hormonal effects of the 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor finasteride in idiopathic hirsutism.
Finasteride reduces hair growth and is safe for women with excessive hair.
research Mammalian Fetal Organ Regeneration
Fetal wounds heal without scarring because of different biological factors, which could help improve adult wound healing.
research Comparison of finasteride and flutamide in the treatment of idiopathic hirsutism
Finasteride and flutamide both reduce hair growth, but finasteride has fewer side effects.
research Minoxidil Sulfation in the Hair Follicle
Minoxidil helps hair growth by activating enzymes in hair follicles.
research Robotic Hair Restoration
The ARTAS robotic system for hair restoration is efficient with fewer cuts than manual methods, but it's limited to certain hair types and can still leave scars.
research International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health Clinical Practice Guideline for the Use of Systemic Testosterone for Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder in Women
Testosterone therapy can help postmenopausal women with low sexual desire if monitored carefully.
research Expanding the Nude SCID/CID Phenotype Associated with FOXN1 Homozygous, Compound Heterozygous, or Heterozygous Mutations
FOXN1 mutations can cause varying immune and physical issues, with severity influenced by gene activity and possibly other factors.
research Randomized trial of electrodynamic microneedle combined with 5% minoxidil topical solution for the treatment of Chinese male Androgenetic alopecia
Combining electrodynamic microneedle with 5% minoxidil improves hair growth and reduces hair loss in Chinese men.
research Androgen treatment of postmenopausal women
Testosterone therapy can improve sexual desire and function in postmenopausal women but should be used cautiously and not based solely on testosterone levels.
research Interactions between Crossed Hair Fibers at the Nanoscale
Hair fibers interact through classical forces, which are influenced by treatments and products, important for hair care and other applications.
research New approaches to the treatment of osteoporosis
Future osteoporosis treatments should focus on increasing bone growth, with many promising options available.
research Cell Cycle Regulation and Regeneration
Mice that can regenerate tissue have cells that pause in the cell cycle, which is important for healing, similar to axolotls.
research Androgen antagonists in androgen target tissues
Antiandrogens have important biological effects, but more research is needed to understand them fully and compare their effectiveness and side effects to other treatments.
research Measurement of hair growth
Scalp hair grows at 0.37 mm/day, forearm hair at 0.18 mm/day, and thigh hair at 0.30 mm/day, with no significant differences found in people with certain hair conditions.
research Microneedling dilates the follicular infundibulum and increases transfollicular absorption of liposomal sepia melanin
Microneedling helps increase the absorption of a melanin product into hair follicles, which may improve laser hair removal effectiveness.
research Helicobacter pylori infection and skin disorders
Some skin disorders might be linked to H. pylori infection, but more research is needed to confirm this.
research Steroid sulfatase inhibitors
Steroid Sulfatase inhibitors show promise in treating hormone-dependent disorders like cancers, hair loss, and acne, with 667COUMATE being a potential candidate for breast cancer treatment trials.
research Liposomes with an Ethanol Fraction as an Application for Drug Delivery
Ethosomes improve drug delivery through the skin but may have side effects like irritation.
research Micro-autologous Fat Transplantation (MAFT) for Forehead Volumizing and Contouring
MAFT is a reliable method for forehead contouring with high patient satisfaction and long-term results.
research Androgen receptor modulators: a review of recent patents and reports (2012-2018)
New androgen receptor modulators show promise for treating diseases like prostate cancer and muscle wasting.
research Application of Nanoemulsions in Cosmetics
Nanoemulsions improve stability and delivery of active ingredients in cosmetics for skin and hair care.
research Effectiveness of a Layer-by-Layer Microbubbles-Based Delivery System for Applying Minoxidil to Enhance Hair Growth
Minoxidil-coated microbubbles with sonication effectively enhance hair growth.
research Modulating Mesenchymal Stem Cell Behavior Using Human Hair Keratin-Coated Surfaces
Coating surfaces with human hair keratin improves the growth and consistency of important stem cells for medical use.
research Symmetry breaking of tissue mechanics in wound induced hair follicle regeneration of laboratory and spiny mice
Tissue stiffness affects hair follicle regeneration, and Twist1 is a key regulator.
research A Randomized, Controlled Pilot Trial Comparing Platelet-Rich Plasma to Topical Minoxidil Foam for Treatment of Androgenic Alopecia in Women
Both Platelet-Rich Plasma and Minoxidil foam increase hair count in women with hair loss, but Minoxidil is more effective. However, women were more satisfied with Platelet-Rich Plasma treatment.
research Physical methods for topical skin drug delivery: concepts and applications
New physical methods like electrical currents, ultrasound, and microneedles show promise for improving drug delivery through the skin.
research The Metabolism and Control Mechanism of Human Hair Follicles
Human hair follicles have a unique metabolism that changes between growth stages and may contribute to baldness.
research Acquired trichomegaly of the eyelashes and hypertrichosis induced by bimatoprost
Bimatoprost can cause longer, thicker, darker eyelashes and eyebrows.
research Pharmacokinetic parameters and mechanisms of inhibition of rat type 1 and 2 steroid 5α-reductases: determinants for different in vivo activities of GI198745 and finasteride in the rat 3 3Abbreviations: r5AR1, rat 5α-reductase 1; r5AR2, rat 5α-reductase 2; and DHT, dihydrotestosterone.
GI198745 is more potent and longer-lasting than finasteride, potentially better for treating hair loss.
