September 2015 in “The European physical journal. E, Soft matter and biological physics/The European physical journal. E, Soft matter” In this study, a mechanical model was developed to describe and validate the effectiveness of overnight hair curling, suggesting that combining it with hair fixatives can maintain a desired curl for over a day.
November 2001 in “Dermatologic Surgery” This study concluded that effective and safe alopecia reduction surgery is possible when specific surgical techniques are used, minimizing complications.
In this study, researchers developed a mathematical model of outer hair cell hair bundles that replicates experimental responses to mechanical stimuli, providing insights into the stimulus-dependent adaptation mechanisms and the functional significance of their three-row stereocilia configuration in mammalian hearing.
June 1997 in “The American Journal of Cosmetic Surgery” This article discusses the use of scalp stretching techniques to enhance donor hair supply for hair restoration, but it reports no new clinical findings.
April 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that knocking out STAT5 expression in specific mouse hair follicles after tamoxifen treatment initiated uniform hair growth, highlighting STAT5's role in regulating the hair growth cycle.
