This study found that a chitosan, chondroitin sulfate, and hyaluronic acid scaffold improved wound healing in rats by promoting immune-stromal interactions, reducing inflammation, and supporting tissue regeneration with ~91% wound closure by day 17 compared to ~63% in controls.

This research found that immobilizing type I atelocollagen onto artificial hair significantly improved the adhesion and long-term fixation of the hairs in the human scalp, indicating high biosafety and enhanced tissue integration.

In this study, researchers developed a multilayered gel bead culture model using a microgel-spotting device, successfully mimicking the early development of skin appendages and supporting in vitro hair follicle regeneration with structures resembling native hair follicles.

This study found that the Fibonacci 'snail' flap for scalp defect reconstruction healed faster and resulted in better aesthetic outcomes than skin grafts, though not all complication rate differences were statistically significant.

In this study, researchers developed a silk fibroin-based hydrogel with added curcumin and pluronic F127, which displayed antibacterial properties against Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and showed potential for skin tissue regeneration, without cytotoxicity.

This letter details a case report on platelet-rich plasma treatment for a patient with treatment-resistant frontal fibrosing alopecia, but it does not provide new clinical results.

In this review, the researchers highlight the role of fibroblasts in regulating the extracellular matrix and immune responses, emphasizing the impact on macrophages and potential therapeutic insights for fibrotic diseases and cancer.

This study found that despite chemical differences, five different brands of reconstructive hair fibers all provided successful cosmetic results in disguising hair loss in patients.

This review discusses the use of bioactive glass in skin tissue repair and highlights its potential to aid wound healing through effects on inflammatory cells and tissue regeneration, but reports no new experimental findings.

In this study, composite grafts were effectively used for reconstructing lower third nasal defects, providing good aesthetic outcomes with minimal complications and avoiding long scars associated with larger flaps.

In this review, cosmetic practices such as non-ablative lasers, autologous fat injections, and oral isotretinoin may help alleviate certain symptoms of frontal fibrosing alopecia, while treatments like deep chemical peels and ablative laser therapies are contraindicated due to potential scarring risks.

This review discusses the potential of marine-derived polysaccharide nanofibers as advanced wound dressings, highlighting their regenerative advantages in addressing inflammation, oxidative stress, and other healing barriers. However, it notes that clinical translation is limited by challenges in standardization, evidence, safety, and production scalability.

This review discusses frontal fibrosing alopecia and reports no clinical results; the authors note that no therapeutic options tested, including corticosteroids, finasteride, and minoxidil, have shown clear benefits.

This study suggests that human dermal fibroblasts can be converted into dermal papilla cell-like cells using microencapsulation, which may facilitate hair follicle regeneration in mice without chemical or genetic reprogramming.

This study reports that a novel UV-based crosslinking process for collagen sponges significantly decreases crosslinking time compared to traditional methods, and supports effective cell proliferation and wound regeneration in a mouse model, without causing abnormal angiogenic or immune responses.

This case report describes a 45-year-old man with androgenetic alopecia who developed painful abscesses after monacrylic hair fiber implantation, requiring surgical intervention with tissue expansion and flap repair.

This study found that applying a growth factor cocktail including FGF9 with microneedling significantly increased hair density and diameter in patients with androgenetic alopecia, with similar results regardless of microneedle depths between 0.5 mm and 0.8 mm.

In this study, researchers reported that a keratinocyte growth factor-Ig fusion protein could specifically detect and localize KGFRs in epithelial tissues, suggesting a method for histochemical detection of growth factor receptors.

This review discusses the possible immune-mediated and environmental factors contributing to frontal fibrosing alopecia but reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing the need for standardized treatment evaluations.

This study found that CLD-hFGF2 hydrogels improved healing in deep second-degree burn wounds more effectively than hydrogels alone or direct administration of CLD-hFGF2.
