This case report highlights the risk of retinal injuries from laser epilation, emphasizing the importance of practitioner training and protective eyewear to prevent irreversible vision damage.

This systematic review found no existing studies evaluating the effectiveness of waxing and mechanical epilation as methods of preoperative hair removal to reduce surgical site infections, highlighting a potential area for future research.

This study found that electrical epilation in organ-cultured human scalp skin perturbs hair follicles by causing inflammation, impairing melanin production, and possibly inhibiting post-epilation hair re-growth.

Selective chemical epilation effectively treats tinea capitis without harmful side effects.

In this study, modulating Tyrosinase expression altered mouse coat color by affecting melanosome accumulation, indicating that melanosome maturity plays a role in determining skin and hair color beyond total melanin content.

This study found that, despite a major depletion of SOX2-expressing stem cells in the pituitary, there was no effect on endocrine cell homeostasis or response to certain stressors in adult mice.

This article reviews the clinical manifestations and contributing factors of acute zinc depletion syndrome, reporting no new results but discussing prevention and treatment strategies.

This study found that depleting fibroblasts in the skin does not affect the proliferative capacity of epidermal stem cells at various ages, suggesting robust compensatory mechanisms maintain skin functionality despite these cellular changes.

In this study, Dguok deficiency in mice led to premature hair greying due to a loss of melanocyte stem cells and mature melanocytes, with increased oxidative stress and cell death; treatment with an antioxidant mitigated these effects, suggesting DGUOK's importance in hair pigmentation maintenance.

This review discusses temporary chemical hair removal methods involving thioglycolates and other compounds but reports no new clinical findings; the authors highlight interest in natural-based substances.

This review discusses various hair removal techniques, particularly focusing on laser hair removal, and reports no clinical results; it emphasizes the need for ongoing research to assess effectiveness.

Women treated with X-ray for scalp fungus as children had a higher chance of hair loss, especially with higher radiation doses and severe fungus infections.

This case report describes a rare instance of dermographic urticaria triggered by an 810 nm diode laser for hair removal, with symptoms managed effectively by pre-treatment with levocetirizine.

In this hospital-based observational study involving 30 participants, researchers found no statistically significant difference in the force needed to pluck anagen versus telogen hair in the frontal and occipital scalp regions of women with female pattern hair loss.

This study found that hair shaft miniaturization in aging and genetic hypotrichosis leads to hair follicle stem cell loss through mechanical compression and apoptosis mediated by the Piezo1 channel.

Deleting Rac1 in the skin depletes stem cells and damages hair follicles.

This review discusses recent findings on fibrotic lipodystrophy, highlighting the critical roles of lipid-filled cells in tissue function and their loss during fibrogenesis, with implications for fibrosis in tissues like skin, lung, and liver.

This study reported that using UVB preirradiation and anti-CD154 antibody treatment in a humanized mouse model prolonged hair follicle allograft survival and reduced immune cell infiltration without needing generalized immunosuppression.

In this study, the deletion of NIPP1 in keratinocytes led to chronic skin inflammation and epidermal changes in mice, with early cell-cycle arrest and premature senescence observed, potentially contributing to reduced mutagen sensitivity.

This study found that ingesting seeds from the Lecythis ollaria tree may cause hair loss and other toxic effects in animals.

This study investigated vitamin D receptor expression in normal hair follicles and those affected by alopecia areata, focusing on various markers using immunohistochemical staining.

This study found that immune-mediated destruction of bulge stem cells is a key factor in the alopecia observed in AE mice, suggesting it as a model for studying primary cicatricial alopecias, particularly lichen planopilaris.

In this study, a new IPL device effectively reduced hair regrowth with high patient satisfaction, particularly in individuals with coarse dark hair and darker skin, despite repeated sessions needed for lighter hair and skin.

Stress can cause hair to turn gray by depleting stem cells.

This study found that minoxidil prevents long-term serotonergic toxicity induced by MDMA in rats, primarily by opening mitochondrial KATP channels and involving Akt and MAP kinases in its neuroprotective mechanism.

This study concluded that hair zinc levels in weaned male rats do not reliably indicate their overall zinc status, as varying dietary zinc levels produced inconsistent hair zinc concentrations.

This study found that the combination of Stemoxydine® and Resveratrol improved hair density in women with Female Pattern Hair Loss.

In this study, researchers found that women with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and hair loss had significantly lower levels of ferritin, zinc, and vitamin D compared to men, and constructed a validated risk score to predict severe nutrient deficiencies in these patients.

This study reviewed evidence suggesting that the loss of dermal white adipose tissue (dWAT) during menopause may be linked to decreased estrogen levels, potentially affecting skin health, and discussed non-hormonal treatments, like magnolol, that might help restore dWAT and improve menopausal skin changes.
