Bulge progenitor cells show promise for regenerating hair follicles and increasing hair density.

The researchers in this study identified molecular mechanisms involved in frontal fibrosis alopecia, highlighting immune response and fatty acid metabolism, and developed a four-gene diagnostic model showing high accuracy in distinguishing affected individuals from controls.

This study found that MF patients with darker skin types show slower initial improvement with NB-UVB phototherapy, highlighting disparities in treatment efficacy that warrant further investigation.

This review discusses the efficacy and safety of platelet-rich plasma for facial rejuvenation but reports no definitive clinical results, noting the evidence remains insufficient for firm conclusions.

This article discusses methods to enhance finasteride delivery to scalp skin using heat and chemical penetration enhancers and reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that intradermal injections of autologous cell-free fat extract significantly improved the condition of postinflammatory hyperpigmentation patients, with high patient satisfaction and minimal adverse effects.

This report presents four new cases of follicular porokeratosis, which exhibit distinct histological features where the cornoid lamella are confined to the follicular ostia.

This review summarizes the current treatment modalities for frontal fibrosing alopecia and provides a practical guide for clinicians, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the occurrence of persistent sexual, physical, neurological, and psychiatric side effects known as post-finasteride syndrome after 5x-reductase inhibitor treatment, and emphasizes the importance of evaluating these risks for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia or androgenic alopecia.

In this laboratory study, researchers found that human platelet-rich plasma (hPRP) significantly improved the proliferation and hair-inductive capacity of human dermal papilla cells (hDPCs) compared to fetal bovine serum, suggesting hPRP as a potential substitute for FBS in expanding hDPCs for clinical hair regeneration therapies.

This chapter outlines the sequential steps for using motorized follicular unit extraction machines with blunt punches in hair restoration, noting their advantages in minimizing follicle transection and providing tactile feedback.

This report describes the clinical presentation of Papillon-Lefèvre syndrome in two brothers and reviews the related literature, without providing new clinical outcomes.

Among patients with biopsy-proven FAPD in specialized hair clinics, this study found the condition is common in females around 52.5 years old, with treatment generally stabilizing or slightly improving hair loss, despite challenges in differentiating FAPD from androgenetic alopecia.

P-3074 effectively blocks scalp DHT better than oral finasteride.

In this study, L-PRF was associated with successful osseointegration and tissue healing when used with biomaterial for dental implants in a patient with an atretic bone ridge.

Finasteride may help treat BPH by affecting certain biological markers.

This review summarizes the adverse effects associated with 5α‐reductase inhibitors, noting slightly increased rates of decreased libido, erectile and ejaculatory dysfunction, gynecomastia, depression, and anxiety, with further studies needed to explore symptom prevalence and persistence.

This study adds evidence suggesting a genetic component to frontal fibrosing alopecia, with daughters experiencing an earlier onset than their mothers, although the clinical pattern remains similar to non-familial cases.

This study concluded that platelet rich fibrin (PRF) may enhance healing and functional recovery compared to platelet rich plasma (PRP) during immediate post-extractive dental implant procedures.

This chapter reviews techniques for treating pseudofolliculitis barbae and suggests that combining daily shaving with topical treatments like glycolic acid may effectively manage this condition without new clinical results reported.

This study found that PGF 2α receptors were predominantly present in the inner root sheath of the bulb and stem of human eyelashes during the anagen phase.

In this study, higher expression of PEDF was observed in hair follicles from balding regions in AGA patients, suggesting that targeting PEDF could be a promising approach for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that red LED photobiomodulation significantly enhanced both the metabolic activity and proliferation of human placenta-derived pericytes, alongside increased expression of angiogenic markers, suggesting a potential non-invasive approach to aid tissue repair and vascular regeneration.

Two main types of fibroblasts with unique functions and additional subtypes were identified in human skin.

This study reported that pentoxifylline-loaded liposomes, optimized using a statistical design method, achieved a maximum encapsulation efficiency of 84.23% and a controlled 72-hour drug release, potentially improving therapeutic delivery of the drug with limited bioavailability.

This article describes a case of multiple perifollicular fibromas and suggests that cases previously reported as such might actually be instances of Birt‐Hogg‐Dubé syndrome.

This article discusses various forms of alopecia and introduces Biofibre® as a current technique for addressing hair loss, without reporting new clinical results.

The researchers reported that the novel MBTPS2 variant p.Glu172Asp found in a male proband is likely pathogenic, consistent with osteogenesis imperfecta symptoms and molecular signatures, including disrupted fatty acid metabolism and collagen production.
