Aging alone barely affects the number of hair follicles, meaning hair loss is minimal without other conditions like androgenetic alopecia.
research Hair removal using an Nd: YAG laser system.
Nd:YAG laser can reduce hair with multiple treatments, but permanent removal isn't guaranteed.
research Thyroxine Differentially Modulates the Peripheral Clock: Lessons from the Human Hair Follicle
Thyroxine can adjust the body's peripheral clock, potentially helping treat clock-related diseases.
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 Female pattern hair loss
FPHL causes hair loss in women due to genetics and hormones; minoxidil and anti-androgens are treatments, and early intervention is advised.
research Effects of Finasteride on Apoptosis and Regulation of the Human Hair Cycle
Finasteride helps hair growth by decreasing cell death in hair follicles.
research Laser hair removal
Laser hair removal works well for people with dark hair and light skin, but it's less effective for light hair or dark skin; improvements are expected.
research Effects of Finasteride on Apoptosis and Regulation of the Human Hair Cycle
Finasteride affects hair growth by changing caspase and XIAP levels, potentially treating hair diseases.
research The Art of Repair in Surgical Hair Restoration–Part II
Successful surgical hair restoration requires careful planning, precise execution, and proper aftercare, using techniques like follicular unit transplantation and correct hair angling for best cosmetic results.
research The Overexpression of Tβ4 in the Hair Follicle Tissue of Alpas Cashmere Goats Increases Cashmere Yield and Promotes Hair Follicle Development
Overexpressing Tβ4 in goats' hair follicles increases cashmere production and hair follicle growth.
research Establishment of keratinocyte cell lines from human hair follicles
Scientists created keratinocyte cell lines from human hair that can differentiate similarly to normal skin cells, offering a new way to study skin biology and diseases.
research The Penetration Enhancer SEPATM Augments Stimulation of Scalp Hair Growth by Topical Minoxidil in the Balding Stumptail Macaque
SEPA™ enhances the effectiveness of minoxidil in stimulating hair growth, working faster and better than Rogaine® TS, with no significant side effects.
research Direct hair transplantation: A modified follicular unit extraction technique
The modified Direct Hair Transplantation method is effective for treating baldness with better graft survival and less damage than standard techniques.
research Stress-sensing in the human greying hair follicle: Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) depletion in hair bulb melanocytes in canities-prone scalp
Hair greying is linked to reduced ATM protein in hair cells, which protects against stress and damage.
research Laser Hair Reduction and Removal
Laser hair removal is effective for dark hair but needs improvement for nonpigmented or fine hairs.
research Use of hair products in relation to ovarian cancer risk
Certain hair straighteners and dyes may increase ovarian cancer risk, especially in African American/Black women.
research Banding Pattern on Polarized Hair Microscopic Examination and Unilateral Polymicrogyria in a Patient With Steroid Sulfatase Deficiency

research A Comprehensive Approach to Hair Pathology of Horizontal Sections
A new method using visual aids to diagnose hair diseases was effective after brief training.
research The patch assay reconstitutes mature hair follicles by culture-expanded human cells
The patch assay can create mature hair follicles from human cells and may help in hair loss treatments.
research Hair removal with the long-pulse alexandrite laser
The long-pulse alexandrite laser effectively removes hair permanently.
