September 2011 in “Revista de Ciências Farmacêuticas Básica e Aplicada” This study examined a shampoo containing chili pepper extract and biopolymer microspheres for hair loss treatment, finding that it was well tolerated by volunteers, particularly due to the exfoliation sensation.
February 2026 in “The Animal Biology” In this animal study, Hirudo verbana leech extract significantly improved hair follicle regeneration and accelerated wound healing in rats, demonstrating potential as a safe and effective agent for skin repair due to its bioactive compounds with regenerative and anti-inflammatory properties.
In this case report, the authors detail a successful management of early scalp ischemia after hair transplantation using the FLOW protocol, which emphasizes cause correction, local vasodilation, oxygenation optimization, and wound care, resulting in recovery without necrosis.
December 2025 in “Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)” This study offers a new perspective on androgenetic alopecia, suggesting that hair loss at the vertex and frontal scalp results from mechanical and thermodynamic stress, alongside androgen activity, and proposes that reducing mechanical tension and improving local microcirculation could complement traditional treatments.
December 2025 in “Mendeley Data” This article outlines a randomized trial to evaluate whether preoperative botulinum toxin administration can improve hair transplantation outcomes by reducing ischemia-induced graft failure.
