This study found that a hair tonic containing 2% green tea extract significantly reduced scalp sebum in 20 volunteers over 28 days without causing skin irritation, suggesting its effectiveness and safety for managing scalp greasiness.

This study reports that non-surgical treatments like triamcinolone acetonide and Botulinum toxin Type A reduced keloid volume by up to 80% in children, with combination therapies being safer and having fewer side effects.

This review discusses the absence of clinical trials on natural ingredients for managing Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia and highlights a need for more research.

In this study, caregivers of patients with chronic skin diseases such as psoriasis, vitiligo, and alopecia areata reported significant burdens, including stress and lack of time, which negatively impacted their quality of life, particularly in those caring for psoriasis patients.

This study found that hydroquinone caused structural damage to the skin of rats, while aloe vera reduced this damage, suggesting potential concerns for its use in skin lightening creams.

This study found that immune privilege is preserved in hair follicles of nonsegmental vitiligo patients compared to those with alopecia areata, potentially protecting follicular melanocytes from autoimmune attacks.

In this case report, a 46-year-old man developed scalp necrosis with infection following FUE hair transplantation, possibly due to factors like smoking, long surgery duration, dense grafting, and secondary infection. Early recognition and treatment prevented further tissue loss, but the patient had residual scarring.

This study examined recent findings on the role of host-microbiome interactions in acne, highlighting that the skin's microbiome composition differs between acne-affected and healthy individuals and discussing emerging microbiome-based treatments.

This review observed limited evidence of clinically significant benefits from treatments for acute central serous chorioretinopathy, which often resolves spontaneously, but identified PDT and micropulse laser as the most promising for further trials.

This review discusses the mechanisms and targets of natural products for treating nonhealing wounds and reports no new experimental results, highlighting potential pathways and cytokines involved.

Silymarin improves hair follicle health better than vitamin C by boosting cell growth and reducing oxidative stress.

In this review, the potential role of the hormone prolactin in skin biology and its implications for treating skin diseases and hair disorders are explored, with a focus on its stress-related impacts and possible immunomodulatory function in the context of COVID-19.

This narrative review assesses evidence on the role of oral supplements in reducing common side effects caused by isotretinoin treatment for acne vulgaris, with the aim of providing guidance for enhancing treatment tolerability.

This review discusses various therapeutic options for frontal fibrosing alopecia and highlights the need for more research, as existing data are largely retrospective and lack precise treatment guidelines.

This report describes two cases of monilethrix in Afghan siblings, detailing the hair disorder's clinical presentation and potential influences on hair growth, such as hormonal changes and iron supplementation.

This study describes a system called FOLLYSIS©, which uses mathematics and image analysis to optimize Follicular Unit Extraction hair transplants, showing high accuracy in measuring donor area density and reducing donor site injury.

This study introduces an extended approach to the Bonferroni procedure that accounts for correlations among endpoints, aiming to improve test power while maintaining strong control of the family-wise type I error rate in clinical trials.

This article introduces the Follicular Unit Excision-Linear Ellipse (FUE-LE) technique, which integrates both FUE and the linear ellipse method for optimal hair restoration, but presents no new clinical results.

This study demonstrates a sample preparation method for wool follicles that allows for clear keratin labeling and ultrastructural preservation in microscopy, reducing common artefacts from conventional fixation techniques.

This study developed a faster method for analyzing fatty acid ethyl esters in hair to help detect alcohol consumption levels, showing potential for applications in forensic and clinical settings.

This study introduces a novel non-invasive method called "differential stripping" to quantify the penetration of topically applied substances into hair follicles.

This study found that repeatedly collecting hair follicles from individuals with fragile X syndrome is feasible for measuring FMR1 and FMRP levels in both home and office settings.

This review discusses the relationship between hyperandrogenic conditions like PCOS and COVID-19, noting that while hyperandrogenic women have varied hospitalization rates, they do not show increased mortality, and suggests isotretinoin as a potential therapeutic option for cutaneous symptoms.

This study describes a double embedding technique for preparing tangential sections of hair and wool fibers, recommending specific staining methods for quantitative analysis and demonstrating wool fiber cortical fractions.
