Dermatoscopy helps track scar changes and guide treatment.

This study demonstrates that LES-hair can detect differential protein expression in specific regions of plucked hair follicles, suggesting its potential for research and clinical applications like monitoring treatment effects in alopecia and cancer therapies.

The microstrip technique for hair transplantation is effective and discreet for patients needing fewer than 1500 grafts.

This study found that trichoscopy is highly effective for diagnosing different types of alopecia, showing an average diagnostic accuracy of 90–95%, with specific features aiding in differentiating forms like androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata. New technologies and AI improve interpretation objectivity, suggesting expanded clinical integration.

This study reports pseudopili annulati in a dark-haired Chinese girl, identifying the unique appearance and structural characteristics of her hair without finding abnormalities in the cuticle and cortex.

This study suggests that trichoscopy with a handheld dermatoscope may help differentiate temporal triangular alopecia from other localized alopecia by identifying specific hair features.

This letter discusses the use of serial trichoscopy versus a modified hair pull test for monitoring localized alopecia areata but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, reflectance confocal microscopy was shown to provide early insights into sub-clinical treatment progress in patients with androgenetic alopecia, potentially offering advantages over global photography.

This study found that micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) was highly effective for analyzing the cross-sectional geometry of hair fibres, including the medulla in highly curled hair, but less effective than scanning electron microscopy for surface details.

The researchers in this study described the use of trichoscopy to assist in diagnosing aplasia cutis congenita of the scalp in a dark-skinned newborn, noting that trichoscopic findings can differ from those seen in light-skinned patients, yet remain a valuable diagnostic tool.

This study used infrared spectral imaging to show for the first time the distribution of glypican-4 and glypican-6 in hair follicles across different growth phases, highlighting the potential of this technique for studying alopecia.

This review outlines the practical use of reflectance confocal microscopy in dermatology, detailing its applications and considerations for diagnosing various skin conditions, but reports no new findings.

This article discusses the premade slit method in hair restoration surgery, emphasizing the importance of a tailored depth control instrument for optimal follicle implantation, but provides no new clinical results.

This study found that line-field confocal optical coherence tomography correlates well with histopathological and dermoscopic findings in alopecia areata, suggesting it could be a useful diagnostic and monitoring tool for the condition.

In this study, reflectance confocal microscopy was used to diagnose periorificial dermatitis, revealing specific skin changes such as hair follicle dilatation, increased vascular density, and inflammation, which help distinguish it from similar conditions.

In this study, the authors evaluated 200 Egyptian children with focal non-cicatricial alopecia, finding that alopecia areata (42%) and tinea capitis (40.5%) were the most prevalent causes. Trichoscopy identified unique features for each condition, enhancing diagnosis and management.

This study generated a transcriptomic map of human hair follicles, identifying compartment-specific gene expression profiles that can aid in developing targeted therapies for hair follicle disorders.

This study found that dermoscopy can identify typical features of Malassezia folliculitis, such as folliculocentricity and perilesional erythema, offering a valuable tool for diagnosing this condition in clinical settings.

This study found that erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp is often misdiagnosed as squamous cell carcinoma, highlighting the importance of biopsy for accurate diagnosis.

In this study, particles similar in size to keratin cells were surprisingly found to penetrate more efficiently into hair follicles due to a possible pumping effect from moving hairs.

This study found that in vivo confocal scanning laser microscopy accurately quantifies neogenic hair follicles in mice, producing results similar to histology while avoiding fixation artifacts.

This study describes a simplified method for isolating and cultivating human hair follicle papillae that can be easily executed by new lab personnel.

This study highlights that including scalp dermoscopy in diagnosing patients treated with the Regenera® protocol revealed that expected outcomes were often overestimated for those with poor prognosis.

In this case report, a 5-year-old boy presented with an itchy patch of hair loss in the frontotemporal region, with trichoscopy revealing specific hair shaft features, such as black dots and corkscrew hairs.

Examining scalp tissue under a microscope helps diagnose and understand hair loss diseases.

This study demonstrated that optical coherence tomography effectively detects significant changes in hair structure caused by steroid treatment, suggesting its potential use in doping control and clinical therapy monitoring.

This paper introduces an algorithm for using smart device-mounted microscopes to analyze scalp images and diagnose hair loss by extracting specific hair loss features.

This article discusses the technique of laser Doppler velocimetry for measuring cutaneous blood flow and does not report new research findings.

This study reports a new method for efficiently isolating hair papillae and follicle epithelium from human scalp specimens but presents no clinical results.

This article describes a surgical technique combining CO2 SilkTouch Laser and Calvitron Hair Transplant System that offers a natural-looking hairline with moderate session length and minimal bleeding, but reports no new clinical outcomes.
