Hair removal methods damage the skin barrier and affect substance penetration.

This chapter reviews ethosomes for targeted drug delivery to the scalp in androgenetic alopecia and reports no clinical results; the authors emphasize reducing systemic side effects.

This review describes deep eutectic solvents as a green alternative to toxic solvents in extracting bioactive compounds, highlighting their sustainability, production from natural ingredients, and beneficial properties for pharmaceutical applications.

This study introduced a technology for creating water-soluble minerals, which reportedly showed potential health benefits such as diet and anti-wrinkle effects in their applications.

In this study, researchers reported that hardshell capsules using the DiluCap® line of excipients demonstrated varying dissolution profiles under gastrointestinal-simulating conditions, with minoxidil and finasteride showing rapid release and melatonin and naltrexone displaying controlled release, indicating their suitability for different applications in compounding pharmacies.

This study found that using a combination of iontophoresis and liposomal delivery facilitated the effective intradermal administration of superoxide dismutase in rats, reducing oxidative skin damage from UV exposure.

This study evaluated enhancers to improve skin absorption of topical cetirizine for androgenic alopecia treatment and found eucalyptus and Tween 80 most effective, while propylene glycol had the weakest effect.

This study aimed to enhance the skin penetration of brown algae fucoidan using a Nanostructured Lipid Carrier, achieving a formulation with good physical quality and stability.

This study found that nanoemulsions of different sizes vary in their ability to penetrate skin layers, with smaller sizes aiding transdermal delivery and potential applications in transcutaneous immunization.

In this research, the authors developed and tested three types of hair conditioners—Herbal, Synthetic, and Ayurvedic—by analyzing their organoleptic properties and physicochemical parameters to assess their effects on hair manageability and appearance.

This study found that using a bicomponent reduction system with TGA and DTDG for hair straightening limited hair damage by forming only thiol groups, while a TGA-only system formed more damaging mixed disulfide groups.

In this study, researchers developed a novel periodate oxidation method for extracting keratin micro-units from waste hair and feathers, achieving yields of 31.28% and 20.64% respectively, enhancing the stability of oil-in-water emulsions and suggesting potential for sustainable biomaterial production.

This study found that using spanlastics, a nano, surfactant-based drug delivery system, improved the bioavailability, drug release characteristics, and pharmacokinetic behavior of famotidine, a poorly soluble drug, by enhancing its dissolution and membrane permeation.

Combining minoxidil and rosemary oil in a gel promotes better hair growth than using them separately.

This study found that a double-crosslinked hydrogel using GelMA and sulfhydrylated chitosan showed promising results in healing full-thickness skin wounds in rats by accelerating tissue repair and promoting collagen and blood vessel formation.

This study suggests that using glycosidases to lyse the polysaccharides of Botryoccocus braunii may allow for the semi-continuous recovery of hydrocarbons while keeping the cells viable.

This study found that using 1,4-butylenediamine bismaleimide for hair perming through thiol-Michael click chemistry offers comparable efficiency to conventional oxidative methods, with enhanced durability and reduced damage to hair fibres, preserving mechanical, color, and surface properties.

This study found that Transcutol-containing vesicles improved the delivery of minoxidil to deeper skin layers in vitro but did not facilitate its permeation through the skin.

This study evaluated a levan-based polysaccharide, POLEVAN®, in shampoo formulations and reported that it significantly increased hair glossiness by 24%, allowed a reduction of surfactant content by up to 50% without affecting foam, and maintained scalp moisturization similar to hyaluronic acid in a clinical setting.

This study suggests that enhancing endocannabinoid tone with an EMT-inhibitor may have anti-inflammatory effects and slightly increase sebaceous lipid production, which could be beneficial for dry skin conditions.

This article reviews strategies like microemulsions to improve adapalene delivery in acne treatment but reports no new clinical results.

This study identified a weak interaction between minoxidil and ß-cyclodextrin in solution, forming an inclusion complex with a 1:1 molar ratio.

This study found that microfibrils play a crucial role in shaping permanent waves by thioglycolic acid, and treating damaged hair with hydrolyzed keratin improved both waving efficiency and hair damage.

In this study, the novel thiol-Michael click perming molecule, MA2-CySS, achieved repeatable perming with reduced oxidative damage, preserving hair keratin's structure while maintaining efficiency comparable to traditional oxidative methods.

This study established a stable formulation for caffeine nanocrystals in specific solvent mixtures, which could be used to test their potential for enhanced hair follicle targeting and penetration.

This thesis explored how stratum corneum barrier disruption and pH-sensitive nanoparticles influence drug penetration and release in skin models, highlighting potential applications for treating atopic dermatitis.

This study developed a new multifunctional medical dressing using Bletilla striata polysaccharide and ethanol extract that demonstrated hemostatic, antibacterial, and significant wound healing effects, as evidenced by quicker healing rates and improved skin conditions in treated wounds compared to controls.

This study found that FucoPol hydrogel membranes can effectively deliver model drugs such as caffeine and diclofenac sodium via different loading methods, with notable mechanical and release properties, suggesting their potential as platforms for topical drug delivery.
