research Drug-Induced Hair Loss and Hair Growth
Some drugs can cause hair loss or increase hair growth, but these effects are usually reversible when the drug is stopped.
research The lack of significant changes in scalp hair follicle density with advancing age
Aging alone barely affects the number of hair follicles, meaning hair loss is minimal without other conditions like androgenetic alopecia.
research The Basic Science of Hair Biology
Hair disorders are caused by a complex mix of biology, genetics, hormones, and environmental factors, affecting hair growth and leading to conditions like alopecia.
research Advances in Hair Diseases
The review highlights the importance of stem cells in hair health and suggests new treatment strategies for hair loss conditions.
research Hair Transplantation Surgery Versus Other Modalities of Treatment in Androgenetic Alopecia: A Narrative Review
Hair transplant surgery is the most effective, safe, and satisfying treatment for hair loss.
research Evidence-based treatments for female pattern hair loss: a summary of a Cochrane systematic review
Minoxidil helps regrow hair in female pattern hair loss, but more research needed for other treatments.
research Qualification of a new and precise automatic tool for the assessment of hair diameters in phototrichograms
The new automatic tool accurately measures hair thickness and is reliable.
research Hair follicle stem cell differentiation is inhibited through cross‐talk between Wnt/β‐catenin and androgen signalling in dermal papilla cells from patients with androgenetic alopecia
Androgens block hair growth by disrupting cell signals; targeting GSK-3 may help treat hair loss.
research Plasticity and Cytokinetic Dynamics of the Hair Follicle Mesenchyme During the Hair Growth Cycle: Implications for Growth Control and Hair Follicle Transformations
Disruptions in hair follicle fibroblast dynamics can cause hair growth problems.
research Light Microscopic Hair Abnormalities in Children: Retrospective Review of 119 Cases in a 10-Year Period
Over half of the children had abnormal hair under a microscope, with many having genetic hair conditions.
research Placebo‐controlled dose‐effect studies with topical minoxidil 2% or 5% in male‐patterned hair loss treated with oral finasteride employing an analytical and exhaustive study protocol
Minoxidil 5% works better than 2% for hair growth in male-patterned hair loss.
research Introductory Chapter: Hair Loss
The document explains the causes, types, diagnosis, and treatments of hair loss, and its psychological impact, especially on women.
research Trichoscopic Features, Clinical Correlates, and Risk Prediction in Female Pattern Hair Loss: A Retrospective Case-Control Study
Female pattern hair loss is linked to genetics, family history, and lifestyle factors.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research There is no clear association between low serum ferritin and chronic diffuse telogen hair loss
Low iron levels are not directly linked to chronic hair loss and iron supplements may not help.
research Finasteride for hair loss: a review
Finasteride helps hair growth but may cause sexual side effects and depression.
research Female Progressive Scalp Hair Loss Associated with Ovarian Thecoma
A woman's hair loss was linked to a rare hormone-secreting ovarian tumor, treated with surgery and hair loss medication.
research Biology of Hair Growth
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone affect hair growth, and new techniques like the folliculogram help study it, but fully understanding hair growth is still complex.
research Hair Regenerative Mechanisms of Red Ginseng Oil and Its Major Components in the Testosterone-Induced Delay of Anagen Entry in C57BL/6 Mice
Red ginseng oil and its components help promote hair regrowth and could treat hair loss.
research Differential Diagnosis of Male and Female Pattern Hair Loss
Detailed history and physical examination are crucial for diagnosing hair loss.
research Hair Biology and Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss caused by genetics and hormones; more research needed for treatments.
research Hair and scalp disorders in ethnic populations
Different hair care practices and conditions affect African American hair and scalp health, requiring specialized knowledge for treatment.
research Quercitrin Stimulates Hair Growth with Enhanced Expression of Growth Factors via Activation of MAPK/CREB Signaling Pathway
Quercitrin may help treat hair loss by promoting hair growth and improving cell health.
research Antiandrogen Therapy for Skin and Hair Disease
Antiandrogen therapies are beneficial for treating skin and hair conditions related to androgen levels.
research Follicular Unit Hair Transplantation
Follicular Unit Transplantation is a precise hair restoration technique that requires careful planning and a skilled team, and Follicular Unit Extraction offers a less invasive option.
research The use of low-level light therapy in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia and female pattern hair loss
Low-level light therapy may help hair regrowth, but more research is needed.
research The Hair Follicle: A Paradoxical Androgen Target Organ
Androgens can both promote and prevent hair growth due to differences in gene expression in hair follicles.
research Hair loss in men
Male-pattern hair loss is normal, often involves hormone effects on hair follicles, and can be treated with medication or surgery, but new treatments are being researched.
research Disorders of hair in children
