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 study concluded that adding a topical agent to intense pulsed light therapy significantly improved hair reduction and patient satisfaction in Pakistani women with idiopathic facial hirsutism compared to light therapy alone, without increasing adverse effects.

This case report detailed a successful treatment involving contracture release and expanded neck flap reconstruction for a patient with severe neck contracture and beard alopecia from past thermal burns, highlighting improved skin quality and hair regrowth following follicular unit extraction.

This review discusses triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) devices for body-integrated electrical stimulation therapy and suggests they may revolutionize personalized healthcare, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, combining photobiomodulation therapy and pulsed electromagnetic field therapy over 24 weeks significantly increased hair density in androgenetic alopecia patients compared to a sham device control, with minimal side effects reported.

This article talks about the concept of extraction and reports no new research findings.

This article recounts a series of "hair burning syncope" cases in black girls experiencing seizures during hair grooming with hot irons, without presenting new research findings.

This study found that 448-kHz Capacitive-Resistive Electrothermal Therapy led to a significant increase in hair density in women with Female Pattern Hair Loss, likely due to stimulated proliferation of dermal papilla cells.

This study reported that a new extraction technique using cautery and forceps is a simple, effective treatment and diagnostic procedure for eruptive vellus hair cysts, with no recurrence after 4 months.

This study reviews advancements in hair restoration surgery, noting that follicular unit excision significantly improves outcomes by enabling graft harvesting without scarring and reporting a graft transection rate under 4% when conducted with advanced equipment.

This case report describes a patient with folliculitis decalvans who successfully responded to photodynamic therapy.

This study demonstrated that electrical stimulation via a polypyrrole-modified electrode enhanced trichogenic gene expression in human dermal papilla cells, leading to increased hair growth in a mouse model.

Lasers are effective for some skin conditions but can cause side effects like scarring and pigment changes; careful selection is important, and botulinum toxin type A is successful in reducing sweat in palmar hyperhidrosis.

This report describes an African-American woman with pseudofolliculitis barbae, hirsutism, and associated postinflammatory hyperpigmentation who was effectively treated with a diode laser.

This report presents a case of a woman with salt and pepper facial hair treated with a combination of laser hair removal and topical eflornithine.

This study evaluated the 308-nm excimer laser as an adjuvant treatment for frontal fibrosing alopecia and found it may stabilize hairline recession and improve erythema and perifollicular hyperkeratosis, with transient erythema as the only reported adverse effect.

In this study, researchers describe the FUE method of hair micrografting, which involves extracting and implanting follicular units using advanced tools, leading to more natural results, quicker recovery, and less damage to donor sites.

This report describes two cases of third degree scalp burns from hair highlighting treatments, highlighting that conservative treatments are associated with prolonged healing, while surgical and psychological interventions result in better outcomes.

The authors concluded that controlling voltage, pulse width, and calcium concentration in pulse electric field-activated platelet-rich plasma enhances the release of growth factors and serotonin without causing clot formation, suggesting potential clinical advantages over bovine thrombin-activated PRP.

This article reviews a tabletop microscopy method for recording electromagnetic radiation from tissues, using hair follicles as a model, and presents no new clinical findings.

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.

This report describes a case where a recalcitrant folliculitis decalvans was successfully treated with a long-pulsed Nd:YAG laser.

This study found that active telethermography could help identify cancerization fields in individuals with actinic keratosis by detecting hyperthermic halos around tumors, which showed significant changes after treatment with a photolyase device.

This case series reports successful treatment of refractory folliculitis decalvans using surgical excision with second-intention healing and guarded high-tension suturing, resulting in long-term remission without recurrence over a 10–24 month follow-up period.

This study found that longitudinal partial follicular unit transplantation may be an effective method for regenerating hair follicles and achieving satisfactory cosmetic outcomes in patients with facial and scalp burns, while preserving the donor area.

This study found that pneumatic skin flattening (PSF) significantly reduces pain and post-treatment erythema during high-energy IPL and laser hair removal while enhancing treatment efficacy.

In this study, researchers found that using electromagnetic radiation in the EHF range enhanced the engraftment of skin flaps in rats by improving microcirculation and reducing necrosis, with greater effects observed when paired with systemic ozone therapy.

This study demonstrated a method for delivering a photosensitizer, Ammi majus fructuum furocumarines, into hair follicles using calcium carbonate particles, followed by UVA irradiation, which led to significant pigment accumulation, indicating potential improvements for photochemical therapy.
