April 2011 in “Expert Review of Dermatology” This review discusses the use of mesotherapy, highlighting its popularity and the lack of large, randomized controlled trials, and advises cautious use.
2 citations
,
May 2022 in “Acta dermato-venereologica” In this study, patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia showed more actinic damage than control subjects, suggesting sunscreen use by these patients may be a consequence rather than a cause of the condition.

August 2011 in “DOAJ (DOAJ: Directory of Open Access Journals)” This study found that women with lower hair loss six months after bariatric surgery consumed more zinc and iron and showed less compromise in the nutritional status of these minerals compared to women with more significant hair loss.
June 2026 in “Skin Appendage Disorders” This meta-analysis found that GLP-1 receptor agonists are associated with a 40% increased risk of non-scarring alopecia, likely due to weight loss-induced micronutrient deficiency, with significant associations for telogen effluvium and androgenetic alopecia. However, some patients with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia showed improvement.
This case report highlights a potential link between silicone breast implants and autoimmune/inflammatory syndrome induced by adjuvants, suggesting explantation may help improve symptoms.
January 2026 in “IECCMEXICO” This review highlights how chronic inflammatory skin disorders like psoriasis and atopic dermatitis may be better understood as manifestations of systemic immune dysregulation rather than just skin issues, suggesting that recognizing these conditions as markers of broader immune imbalance can improve diagnosis and medical education.
December 2025 in “BMC Medical Genomics” This study demonstrated that RNA-seq can effectively expand hair follicle transcriptomic profiling in a multi-center study, offering deeper insights than blood transcriptomics alone.
This review discusses forensic DNA phenotyping and its potential applications, particularly for human identification in Latin American populations, but notes challenges due to genetic diversity and reports no new results.
September 2025 in “Journal of King Saud University - Science” This study found that Lophocereus marginatus extracts significantly inhibited melanoma cell growth in vitro and stimulated hair growth in mice, with combined treatments of LM with minoxidil or bergamot showing notable effects by day 14 without altering body weight.
April 2025 in “Advances in Traditional Medicine” In this study, a film-forming spray with rosemary essential oil increased hair density in volunteers over 16 weeks, suggesting it has potential efficacy for treating androgenetic alopecia by enhancing hair density restoration.
August 2024 in “JEADV Clinical Practice” In this clinical trial, 16 women with frontal fibrosing alopecia experienced significant improvements in hair density, vellus hair count, and quality of life after monthly intralesional dutasteride treatments, though larger and longer-term studies are needed to confirm these findings.
This study found that stem cell therapy before follicular unit extraction may improve hair restoration outcomes on scarred scalp tissue.
April 2024 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” In a keratinocyte-specific knockout mouse model, this study found that deleting GRK2 disrupted hair follicle homeostasis, causing cyst-like structures, abnormal growth patterns, and eventual hair loss, suggesting potential links to immune-mediated alopecias.
November 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Removing GRK2 in skin cells causes hair loss similar to immune-related alopecia.
September 2023 in “Journal of The American Academy of Dermatology” This study examined the clinicopathological characteristics of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma on the scalp and ear but reported no new results on its association with androgenetic alopecia.
August 2023 in “International journal of research in dermatology” This review suggests that oral Janus kinase inhibitors like tofacitinib, ruxolitinib, and baricitinib show promise for treating alopecia areata in adults, both in terms of efficacy and safety.
July 2023 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This study developed finite element models to examine skin's biomechanical properties, finding that structural heterogeneities like Rete ridges and hair follicles create distinct stress and strain patterns that may influence mechanosensation and skin integrity.
January 2023 in “Skin appendage disorders” In this review, the authors detailed the clinical, trichoscopic, and histopathological features of hair disorders linked to autoimmune diseases, highlighting the role of dermatologists in identifying possible underlying autoimmune conditions in patients presenting with hair loss.
