This study observed that repeated perm treatments decrease disulfide bonds in hair due to their conversion largely into cysteic acid, affecting the waving efficiency depending on the reduction agent used.

This study discusses that permanent hair straightening can be achieved at neutral or acidic pH conditions, with varying effects on cystine and lanthionine levels, by inducing supercontraction of the hair fiber.

This study reported that the combination of a 308-nm excimer lamp and 10% liquor carbonis detergens significantly improved scalp psoriasis symptoms compared to the excimer lamp alone, with more patients achieving 75% reduction in their Psoriasis Scalp Severity Index.

This study discusses a surgical skin planing procedure using new technology and freezing agent that is reported to be a safe, effective treatment for cutaneous defects like pitted acne scars.

This study found that taurine and apocynin together created a synergistic effect by significantly reducing burn area damage and enhancing tissue recovery in the burn zone of stasis in rats by day 21.

This article discusses the effects of ablative carbon dioxide laser treatment for skin rejuvenation, noting it requires only a single treatment but involves more complex postoperative management, without reporting new clinical outcomes.

The authors reported that electrochemotherapy and electroporation-based treatments, both with and without cytotoxic drugs, show promise as safer and more effective options for breast cancer treatment, including metastatic cases and palliative care, in vitro and in vivo.

Certain ingredients in personal care products, like formaldehyde, oxidative hair dyes, and sulfates, pose health risks and need careful review.

This case report describes the use of CO2 laser surgery to treat chronic pododermatitis and pseudopads in an 8-year-old obese dog, resulting in complete healing within four weeks after previous treatments provided only temporary relief.

In this case report, two patients with acne necrotica, one in early and one in late stages, showed improvement after treatment with topical mometasone furoate cream and doxycycline tablets, highlighting the under-recognition of this skin condition.

This case series reports that electrochemotherapy with intravenous bleomycin effectively resolved cutaneous mast cell tumors in four cats, showing no tumor recurrence during follow-up, except for new lesions in one cat, and minimal local toxicity.

This study reported that the treatment of hair with glyoxylic acid straighteners causes major conformational changes within the hair fiber due to interactions between carbonyl and keratin components.

Alpha-hydroxy acids, like glycolic acid, safely improve skin issues and work on all skin types.

In this study, a cleanser gel with salicylic acid, vitamin C, and Lens esculenta seed extract reduced facial oiliness by 44.9% after 2 hours and by 19.1% after 4 hours in subjects with oily skin, using a novel facial oiliness mapping method.

This study describes the first known case of erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp triggered by a burn from hair bleaching, which resolved completely with superpotent topical corticosteroids.

This study evaluated a new nanogel formulation containing Ciclopirox Olamine for treating cutaneous candidiasis, finding that the optimized version offered improved skin penetration, sustained drug release, and effective antifungal action against Candida albicans compared to conventional treatment.

This open-access journal publishes innovative research articles across various fields but reports no new clinical results in this summary.

This study reported a case of acute kidney injury and toxic contact dermatitis in a 25-year-old woman following exposure to a glyoxylic acid-containing hair straightening product, highlighting glyoxylic acid's potential role in cutaneous and renal complications and underscoring the need for stronger regulation and awareness.
