research Platelet Rich Plasma Hybridized Adipose Transplant (PHAT) for the Treatment of Hair Loss: A Case Series
PHAT may improve hair growth better than PRP alone.
research Balding hair follicle dermal papilla cells contain higher levels of androgen receptors than those from non-balding scalp
Cells from balding scalps have more androgen receptors than cells from non-balding scalps.
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 Diffuse scarring alopecia in a female pattern hair loss distribution
Scarring hair loss found in female pattern; biopsy needed for diagnosis.
research Management of female-pattern hair loss
Minoxidil and spironolactone slow hair loss in women.
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 Treatment of female pattern hair loss with oral antiandrogens
Oral antiandrogens effectively treat female hair loss, with better results in higher hair loss grades.
research Hair loss in elderly women
Hair loss in elderly women is often caused by various factors, including hormonal changes after menopause.
research Treatment of female pattern hair loss with a combination of spironolactone and minoxidil
Spironolactone and minoxidil together effectively treat female pattern hair loss.
research Distinguishing diffuse alopecia areata (AA) from pattern hair loss (PHL) using CD3+ T cells
CD3+ T-cell presence is a reliable marker to tell apart alopecia areata from pattern hair loss.
research Hair follicle changes following intense pulsed light axillary hair reduction: histometrical, histological and immunohistochemical evaluation
Intense pulsed light treatment effectively reduces underarm hair by making hair follicles smaller and extending their resting phase.
research Pumpkin seed oil vs. minoxidil 5% topical foam for the treatment of female pattern hair loss: A randomized comparative trial
Pumpkin seed oil slightly outperforms minoxidil foam in treating hair loss with fewer side effects.
research An update on diagnosis and treatment of female pattern hair loss
Updated treatments for female hair loss include minoxidil, antiandrogens, hair transplants, and light therapy.
research The topical penta-peptide Gly-Pro-Ile-Gly-Ser increases the proportion of thick hair in Japanese men with androgenetic alopecia
GPIGS peptide increases thick hair growth in balding Japanese men.
research Can you diagnose hair loss (Non-scarring alopecia)
Non-scarring hair loss can be diagnosed with two 4mm punch biopsies, one cut vertically and the other transversely.
research Lyophilized growth factor intralesional injection in female pattern hair loss: A clinical and trichoscopic study
Injections improve hair growth, density, and thickness in women safely.
research From a stem-cell–centered to a niche-centered view: the core role of collagen networks in hair loss and hair follicle miniaturization
Collagen networks play a key role in hair loss and follicle miniaturization.
research 28 Hair Restoration
Modern hair restoration techniques can effectively treat hair loss and provide natural-looking results.
research Laser hair removal
Laser hair removal is the most requested cosmetic procedure and has become a scientifically-based treatment suitable for all skin types.
research Prostaglandin-Induced Hair Growth
Latanoprost can make eyelashes longer, thicker, and darker.
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 HAIR AND SYSTEMATIC DISEASE
Hair loss can indicate underlying systemic diseases and addressing these can sometimes reverse the hair loss.
research The effect of autologous activated platelet-rich plasma injection on female pattern hair loss: A randomized placebo-controlled study
PRP injections improve hair density and thickness in women with hair loss.
research Prospective Cohort Study on the Effects and Tolerability of Flutamide in Patients with Female Pattern Hair Loss
Flutamide effectively treats female pattern hair loss with low doses showing good liver tolerance.
research Hair loss and herbs for treatment
Herbs can potentially treat hair loss by inhibiting a key enzyme and promoting hair growth, and deficiencies in zinc, biotin, and iron are linked to hair loss.
research Best Practice Options for Hair Removal in Patients with Unwanted Facial Hair Using Combination Therapy with Laser: Guidelines Drawn up by an Expert Working Group
Combining laser hair removal with topical eflornithine is recommended for better results in treating unwanted facial hair.
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 Androgens trigger different growth responses in genetically identical human hair follicles in organ culture that reflect their epigenetic diversity in life
Male hormones cause different growth in identical human hair follicles due to their unique epigenetic characteristics.
research Embryonic-like regenerative phenomenon: wound-induced hair follicle neogenesis
New hair can grow from large wounds in mice, but less so as they age, involving reprogramming of skin cells and specific molecular pathways.
