The study concluded that dutasteride 0.5 mg daily for 24 weeks was the most effective monotherapy for increasing hair density in men with androgenetic alopecia, compared to other interventions.

This study reports two cases where localized prostate cancer with low PSA levels was incidentally detected through CT scans performed for other medical reasons.

This discussion presents insights by Dr. Jonathan Ballon but does not report new clinical findings.

This consensus statement discusses guidelines for screening, diagnosing, and treating the Female Athlete Triad, and introduces a risk stratification system to assist healthcare providers with sports participation decisions.

This study found that the HairMax LaserComb® significantly increased hair density and was safe and well tolerated for treating androgenetic alopecia in men compared to a sham device.

This study found that long-pulsed ruby laser treatment effectively reduced hair density on the beard and chest of male-to-female transsexuals, achieving a 50–90% reduction maintained over six months.

This study reported that follicular unit extraction using nonhead hair sources like the chest or beard may successfully restore hair density and achieve aesthetically pleasing results in severely bald men with limited head donor hair.

This study reviewed clinical trials and found that low-level laser therapy significantly increased hair diameter or density in both men and women with pattern hair loss compared to a sham device, though the involvement of industry relationships in some studies suggests cautious interpretation.

In this study, researchers found that nanomaterials designed for plastic surgery applications show promising results, including a 95% dynamic wrinkle filling rate and enhanced hair density by 41%; however, challenges like potential long-term safety issues and high production costs must be addressed.

This study found that both 5-ALA and Photofrin can effectively destroy human microvascular endothelial cells in vitro and cause tissue necrosis in vivo, with Photofrin showing greater efficacy at lower concentrations or power densities.

This case report describes a patient with psoriasis who experienced scalp hair darkening and increased growth during anti–IL-17 therapy.

In this study, researchers developed a new self-administered finasteride delivery system using powder-carrying microneedles that improved hair growth efficacy and addressed safety concerns compared to topical finasteride gel by allowing sustained intradermal release of the drug for three days with a single application.

This study found that the solubilities of flutamide, dutasteride, and finasteride in supercritical carbon dioxide were effectively modeled using semiempirical equations by Chrastil and Bartle, with varying levels of accuracy.

Using a CO₂ laser for hair transplants improves the surgery and may become important in future hair restoration.

This study found that systemic ovalbumin–aluminum sensitization followed by cutaneous challenge in mice induced thermal hyperalgesia, increased spinal cord gliosis, and sprouting of nociceptive fibers, along with elevated mast cell and nerve profile densities in the skin compared to controls.

This study reported that a 3D-printed LED photobiomodulation device is technically and financially feasible, but requires further experimental and clinical testing before being used in human healthcare.

This systematic review found that light and laser therapies, including excimer and erbium-glass lasers, generally increase hair density and diameter in various types of alopecia, with particularly notable effects in androgenic alopecia but limited efficacy in telogen effluvium.

This study found that adding microneedling with low-level LED therapy and growth factors to Finasteride® treatment led to significant hair regrowth and increased hair density in patients with androgenic alopecia.

This study found that a daily dose of 1 mg finasteride is effective for treating male pattern baldness, but benefits typically require at least three months to manifest and ongoing treatment is necessary to maintain results.

This study used ultrahigh-resolution optical coherence tomography to observe hair shaft structures, finding melanin granules absent only in white hair, which may explain color differences between black and white hair.

This article outlines the rationale and design of the Rotterdam Study, summarizes its major findings, and updates its objectives and methods; it reports no new research results.

This study found that combining near-infrared laser phototherapy with indocyanine green application may improve acne vulgaris by reducing active lesions and inflammation without side effects.

This article reviews how new observations have revolutionized surgical hair restoration and highlights the logical applications and prior illogical judgments that delayed this advancement, without reporting new results.

This study found that a bacterial endophyte from Zea nicaraguensis effectively targets and colonizes plant root hair cells, promoting growth and solubilizing insoluble phosphorus for nutrient uptake.

This study found that low-level laser therapy with an 830-nm wavelength most significantly stimulated hair growth in rats, compared to other wavelengths tested.

This review discusses the use of electromagnetic radiation, including low-level laser therapy, for hair loss management, but it reports no new clinical results and suggests further research.

This study reported that metallic-glass-coated tattoo needles reduced trauma and improved tattoo quality in pig skin experiments compared to uncoated needles.

This study found that multiple treatments combining NIR laser phototherapy with ICG significantly reduced inflammation and improved skin condition in acne without side effects.

This study investigated the dynamic mechanical properties of fluid-immersed elastic hair beds under oscillatory shear flows, revealing a nonlinear response influenced by driving frequency and amplitude, which impacts mechanosensory signaling stability in biological processes like vasodilation and ciliary remodeling.

This abstract describes the use of lasers in hair transplantation for creating recipient sites and enhancing hair growth but reports no new findings.
