research VISIA Skin Analysis System as a Tool to Evaluate the Reduction of Pigmented Skin and Vascular Lesions Using the 532 Nm Laser
This study found that repetitive 532 nm laser therapy significantly decreased scores for macules, pigmented, and vascular lesions on the facial area, regardless of skin phototype or age.
research The melanocyte photosensory system in the human skin
This study reports that melanocytes form a defined photoresponsive network in the skin that reads environmental light cycles and may influence the sleep-waking cycle similar to the pineal gland.
research Laser therapy on darker ethnic skin
This article discusses the lack of national credentialing for laser therapy practitioners and emphasizes the need for rigorous self-assessment and expertise, particularly when treating patients with darker skin, without presenting new research results.
research Revealing biological mechanisms of skin pigment recovery during treatment in vitiligo patients: A proteomic analysis
This study found that certain proteins linked to immune suppression and melanogenesis are associated with repigmentation in vitiligo patients undergoing standard treatment, suggesting these proteins and their pathways play roles distinct from merely reversing skin lesions.

Prolactin may contribute to hair loss, but targeting its receptor won't cure androgenetic alopecia. ABS-201 could be a useful alternative or adjuvant therapy, similar to JAK inhibitors, but not more effective than HMI-115.
community Making your own RT1640 in China
RT1640, a combination of cyclosporin A, minoxidil, and RT175, is discussed as a potential treatment for hair regrowth and repigmentation. The unique formulation aims to enhance hair follicle growth and restore hair pigment without the negative side effects of immunosuppressants.

1 / 801 results- Are the pigments used in scalp micropigmentation safe? Providers describe SMP pigments as safe, medical-grade and made for the scalp, but those are supplier and clinic descriptions rather than regulatory approvals: no colour additive is approved for injection into the skin, and allergic reactions to tattoo pigment are documented.
- Is scalp micropigmentation safe? Providers describe scalp micropigmentation as low-risk when a trained practitioner uses sterile single-use equipment, but that is a provider claim rather than a regulatory finding: pigment allergy, infection and colour change are documented risks of cosmetic tattooing.
- Does scalp micropigmentation look natural? Scalp micropigmentation can look natural if performed by a skilled practitioner.
