July 2026 in “Clinical Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology” In this study, a liposomal-encapsulated Sesbania grandiflora formulation significantly improved hair and scalp health in adults with hair loss over 180 days, showing enhanced hair density, thickness, growth rate, and tensile strength compared to placebo, with no related adverse events reported.
June 2025 in “Frontiers in Pharmacology” This systematic review and meta-analysis found that oral minoxidil improved hair loss symptoms in many patients, with significant improvement in 35%, but 27% experienced adverse events, highlighting the need for further research to confirm its safety and efficacy.
January 2025 in “Conservation Physiology” This study developed and tested two methods to accurately quantify hair growth rates in polar, black, and grizzly bears using dye application and isotopically labelled amino acids, revealing growth rate variations by individual and season.
January 2024 in “International Journal of Health Science” This study evaluated emerging techniques for managing chemotherapy-induced alopecia and found that scalp cooling significantly reduced hair loss, while photobiomodulation was well-tolerated without major adverse effects; however, further research is needed to refine treatment protocols and ensure long-term safety.
September 2023 in “Scientific reports” This study observed that testosterone concentrations in hair segments show some stability over time, but are influenced by factors like sebum integration, hair washing frequency, and individual hair growth rates.
September 2023 in “Translational medicine reports” This case study reported that an 18-year-old woman ingested a large amount of topical minoxidil, leading to symptoms like low blood pressure, increased heart rate, and elevated liver enzymes, but recovered fully after treatment. Minoxidil toxicity may rarely cause abnormal liver enzyme levels.
July 2022 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This study found that hair testosterone concentrations show some consistency over time, but factors like hair washing and individual growth rates influence these levels, suggesting the need for careful sampling and analysis adjustments.
December 2021 in “Trichology and cosmetology:” This study demonstrated that a daily oral supplement of 1000 mg Kera-Diet® improved hair and nail conditions in women experiencing acute telogen effluvium and brittle nail syndrome over three months.
January 2019 in “Journal of cosmetology & trichology” In this study, researchers found that supplementation with L-cystine, either alone or with a keratin hydrolysate, significantly improved hair density, hair and nail brightness, and nail growth in women experiencing acute telogen effluvium and brittle nail syndrome over three months.
April 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study observed that using a 1064 nm Nd: YAG laser may stabilize hair loss and promote new growth in some females with frontal fibrosing alopecia, though individual results varied.
March 2024 in “World Academy of Sciences Journal” This narrative review explores how exercise might help maintain skin homeostasis disrupted by protein deficiency, potentially by promoting processes like increased collagen synthesis and stimulating anti-inflammatory effects, though the exact mechanisms are not entirely understood.
This study found that a 2% minoxidil cream for androgenous alopecia maintained optimal rheological properties for consistent application and long-term stability.
March 2000 in “Preventive Nutrition and Food Science” This study suggests that biotin-rich functional food may stimulate hair growth and prevent hair loss through improved cholesterol and lipid metabolism and blood flow in men.
