This article reports that a series of techniques can effectively improve cosmetic deformities caused by Juri and Elliott flap procedures, restoring patients to a more natural appearance.

This study found that injected wax did not prevent androgenic alopecia and led to remodeling of the skull's outer cortex over a 30-year follow-up, necessitating removal due to a fibroxanthoma.

This study analyzed trichoscopic features of discoid lupus erythematosus on the scalp in skin of color and found distinct patterns based on clinical morphology.

In this study, researchers investigated the alignment of trichoscopic findings with ayurvedic signs (lakshanas) for diagnosing hair loss, suggesting that integrating these perspectives could enhance diagnostics and management of hair and scalp conditions.

This chapter reviews trichoscopic criteria and diagnostic features for various hair and scalp conditions, emphasizing their utility in non-invasive diagnosis, but reports no new clinical results.

In this retrospective study, researchers described the dermoscopic features of dermatitis cruris pustulosa et atrophicans in 30 patients, finding that follicular-based pustules and other specific features were predominant, with male patients being more affected and primarily involving the lower extremities.

Folliculitis decalvans mainly affects middle-aged African American men and is treated with antibiotics.

This review discusses the use of follicular unit extraction and scalp micropigmentation in treating male pattern baldness, noting that scalp micropigmentation provides a non-surgical option to emulate natural hair appearance without downtime.

This study found no correlation between clinical stages of androgenetic alopecia and serum DHEA-S levels in men, contrasting with previous studies suggesting elevated levels.

This study observed that indigenous South Africans with natural afro-textured hair have lower hair densities, varying shaft diameters, and distinct follicular unit patterns compared to other racial groups, with significant gender differences in some parameters, highlighting the need for tailored reference values in clinical settings.

This narrative review discusses the use of micrografts and minigrafts for facial and scalp reconstruction following various causes of hair loss and reports a high level of patient satisfaction with these techniques.

This study found that vertical sections of alopecia biopsy specimens had a higher concordance rate with the original combined diagnosis compared to transverse sections alone, although both methods have their pros and cons.

Other common signs, not just the well-known immune cells around hair bulbs, are important for diagnosing hair loss from alopecia areata.

In this study, researchers reported that chronic UV exposure may contribute to androgenic alopecia progression by influencing hair cycle changes and exacerbating solar elastosis in the scalp.

This study suggests that trichoscopy with a handheld dermatoscope may help differentiate temporal triangular alopecia from other localized alopecia by identifying specific hair features.

This study evaluated the effectiveness of follicular units and growth factors derived from autologous platelet-rich plasma in improving hair growth and density in 23 male patients with pattern hair loss.
