This study found that a 12-week regimen of a botanical supplement significantly improved skin and scalp health in women exposed to high pollution, enhancing factors like skin radiance, moisturization, and reducing wrinkle depth and scalp redness compared to a placebo.

This review discusses various bioactive elements in cosmeceuticals, highlighting their potential benefits, such as anti-aging effects and skin tone improvement, while noting the growing demand due to safety concerns and expanding market opportunities.

This study suggests that while complementary and alternative treatments for hair loss are becoming more popular, their effectiveness and mechanisms remain largely unverified.

In this study, onion (Allium cepa) extracts promoted hair growth in an alopecia model in mice, with the effect appearing unrelated to the presence of the polyphenol quercetin.

Spirulina extract may effectively promote hair growth and reduce inflammation, offering a natural alternative for hair loss treatment.

This study found that extracts from heterotropic cultures of Scenedesmus deserticola JD052 enhanced hair-inductive properties in human dermal papilla cells more effectively than photoautotrophic extracts, likely through activation of AKT/β-catenin signaling, despite similar loliolide content.

This integrative literature review investigated clinical trials on using medicinal plants, herbal products, and dietary supplements for treating alopecia, noting a need for further studies due to limited chemical-pharmaceutical analyses of the plant species involved, which include Allium sativum and Rosmarinus officinalis.

This study found that coconut seed extract may effectively treat scabies in rabbits by improving infection signs and causing high mite mortality, suggesting its potential as a cost-effective herbal alternative.

This study found that fucoidan extracts from Sargassum glaucescens, particularly oligo-fucoidans, promoted hair growth and increased related gene expression in human dermal papilla cells and mice models.

In this study, the genotoxic effects of the 2020 harmful algal bloom event were linked to specific toxic algal groups affecting Tradescantia plants, making Trad-SHM and Trad-MN tests suitable for evaluating HABs' toxic potential.

This review discusses the potential benefits of phytochemicals for hair care and emphasizes the need for more robust preclinical and clinical studies, without reporting new clinical results.
