research Wetting behavior of human hair fibers
Human hair's ability to get wet is complex and can change with treatments, damage, and environment.
research High proliferation and delamination during skin epidermal stratification
High proliferation and cell delamination drive early skin development, while later stages may not rely on cell division orientation.
research Effect of Platelet-Rich Plasma Injection for Rejuvenation of Photoaged Facial Skin
PRP injections may improve skin texture and wrinkles based on patient feedback, despite no significant changes seen by dermatologists.
