In this study, four cases of neck carbuncle were treated, revealing that fire needle therapy combined with topical drugs offers less trauma, smaller scars, and faster recovery compared to surgery in early stages, but surgical debridement is essential for more advanced cases.

This study reported that fire needle therapy improved skin lesions, increased melanocyte numbers, and boosted melanin levels in a vitiligo mouse model by upregulating the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway, suggesting its potential role in treating vitiligo through promoting pigmentation.

This study found that combining fire needle therapy with DHT treatment over eight weeks improved lesion severity, scar symptoms, quality of life, and reduced serum inflammatory cytokine levels in patients with moderate-to-severe acne vulgaris compared to using DHT alone.

In this study involving acne patients, researchers compared the effects of combined fire needle and salicylic acid therapy with conventional treatment, measuring improvements in skin lesion severity, skin barrier function, and microbiota diversity; results are not reported in the abstract.

This review article found that fire needle acupuncture has shown promise in treating alopecia areata by acting directly on skin lesions and regulating Qi and blood, aiming to offer diagnostic and treatment insights for managing the condition.
