This report describes a case of Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome with manifestations including multiple fibrofolliculomas, acrochordons, and renal oncocytoma.

This study investigated a fat grafting technique (MID BACK) to enhance back muscle definition in patients undergoing liposculpture, reporting no adverse events and only minor complications, suggesting the method is safe and effective for improving muscular contours and correcting spinal asymmetries.

This article discusses the lack of information on central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia's manifestations in Black men and reports no new clinical findings; the authors emphasize the need for further study in this population.

This study found that trichoscopy is a useful tool in differentiating between alopecia areta and trichotillomania on the eyebrows based on distinct hair and follicle features.

In this study, researchers found that dermoscopy revealed specific features in Malassezia folliculitis, such as folliculocentricity and perilesional erythema, which can aid in its identification and potentially distinguish it from acne vulgaris.

This case report describes alopecia areata dermoscopy in an African-American patient, revealing novel patterns such as a diffuse honeycomb-like pigmented network and white dots, suggesting skin color may affect dermoscopic findings.

This study analyzed the features of alopecia areata incognita and diffuse alopecia areata, finding distinct patterns in hair loss regions and trichoscopic signs, and noted a benign course responsive to topical steroid therapy.

This study found that after 24 weeks of DPCP treatment for alopecia areata, there was a significant increase in new capillaries and hair regrowth detectable by videocapillaroscopy.

This study observed that videodermoscopic assessments of dermatomyositis patients revealed specific vascular and pigmentary features, suggesting it may be useful for preliminary diagnosis.

In this study, the authors emphasize the importance of not ignoring the partial presence of comma or harpin hairs and black spots when identifying early lesions of tinea capitis, which may initially be overlooked due to their small size.

This article discusses alopecia areata incognito, highlighting its diffuse hair loss pattern and favorable response to steroid treatment, but it reports no new clinical data.

This study observed that in a series of 28 patients with different types of alopecia, specific trichoscopic markers like exclamation-mark hairs and yellow dots helped distinguish alopecia areata from conditions like lichen planopilaris and discoid lupus erythematosus, which showed follicular ostia loss and white scarring.

This study reports that trichoscopy and histopathology can effectively diagnose alopecia areata incognito and differentiate it from telogen effluvium or androgenetic alopecia, aiding clinicians in better hair regrowth management.

This study concluded that trichoscopy is a reliable, non-invasive, and faster diagnostic method for ambiguous cases of alopecia.

This review discusses dissecting cellulitis of the scalp and reports no new clinical findings.

Recognizing specific scalp patterns can help diagnose hair loss linked to breast cancer spread.

This review discusses the clinical and trichoscopic features of lichen planopilaris and notes its potential underdiagnosis prior to hair transplant, but it reports no new findings.

This review discusses fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution and highlights diagnostic features, but reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the value of trichoscopy and histology in diagnosis.

This review discusses the role of dermoscopy in diagnosing hair and scalp disorders, noting its ability to aid in differential diagnosis without the need for biopsies; it reports no new clinical results.

This observational study found that trichoscopy is a reliable tool for diagnosing various hair and scalp disorders, with common findings observed for different types of alopecia.

This study reported that dermoscopy can aid in distinguishing secondary syphilis from other skin conditions by enhancing diagnostic accuracy, though there are no standardized criteria; further research is needed to confirm these findings.

This study analyzed dermoscopic findings in alopecia areata among children and adults, discovering that exclamation mark hairs are more common in children, while yellow dots appear more often in adults, indicating the importance of age-specific evaluation in diagnosing this condition.

This study found that dermoscopy can help differentiate between types of diffuse alopecia in females, with yellow dots common in telogen effluvium and hair diameter diversity over 20% significant in female androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, researchers characterized the clinical features of ophiasis, an uncommon type of alopecia areata, and proposed a new subtype classification that may help predict treatment response and guide management, noting that ophiasis generally has a chronic and refractory nature.

This study examined trichoscopic findings in androgenetic alopecia, reporting that hair diameter variability, vellus hairs, and the peripilar sign are valuable indicators for diagnosing this condition.

This article discusses features, genetics, and diagnostic challenges of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African American women but reports no new clinical results.

Among female patients experiencing hair loss, this study found telogen effluvium to be the most common type, significantly linked to low ferritin levels, while traction alopecia was more prevalent among those wearing headscarves.

This study found that fractional laser treatment significantly enhances the penetration and targeting of certain permeants, such as imiquimod and FD, to skin follicles, but not hydroquinone.

In this study, researchers demonstrated that the expression of the oncogene SmoM2 leads to basal cell carcinoma in the ear epidermis of mice but not in the back skin, with differences in susceptibility linked to the composition of the extracellular matrix.

In this study, a single application of autologous cellular micrografts showed short-term favorable responses in up to two-thirds of patients with androgenetic alopecia.
