This study found that dermatoscopy can quickly and non-invasively detect facial vellus hair involvement in patients with alopecia frontal fibrosante, occurring frequently and associated with specific facial lesions.

Small white dots on the scalp seen with a dermoscope correspond to sweat ducts and vary with different hair disorders.

This study found that topical tacalcitol improved roughness and scaling in erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli, although it was less effective for facial erythema.

The woman's skin and hair symptoms were confirmed as frontal fibrosing alopecia, and while facial papules are common in such cases, there's no effective local treatment, but systemic treatments can help.

This review discusses the diverse roles of Frizzled proteins in developmental and homeostatic processes and reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that ferulic acid effectively stabilized vitamins C and E in a topical solution, doubling skin photoprotection against solar-simulated irradiation, which may help in preventing photoaging and skin cancer.

This study reported that in men with androgenic alopecia, a distinct subclinical hyperpigmentation pattern was observed in the scalp, associated with baldness severity and possibly linked to local melanin production by pilosebaceous units.

This report describes three cases of erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli showing significant improvement in facial telangiectasia following treatment with a 595-nm pulsed dye laser, with minimal recurrence observed during follow-up.

This article discusses the pseudo 'fringe sign' in frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting that it is not solely related to traction, and it reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses how the balding scalp's exposure to UV and near-infrared light may accelerate aging, with changes detectable under ultraviolet light; it presents no new clinical findings.

This report describes an infant who was diagnosed with Rothmund-Thomson syndrome, a rare genetic disorder characterized by diverse skin changes, short stature, and other developmental anomalies.

This study found that facial papules and rosacea in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia were linked to a greater need for oral treatment, with most cases involving postmenopausal women.

In this study, synchrotron fibre diffraction identified changes in dermal collagen microfibrillar radius with age, with lower radii observed in individuals with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.

This study introduced and evaluated a new dermoscopic feature, pigmented rings with central clearing, for improving the diagnosis of melasma and differentiating it from similar conditions.

A new gene mutation may allow some piebaldism patients to regain skin color in white patches.

This study found distinct skin surface changes, including faint mosaic melanoderma and atypical scaliness, on long-standing sun-exposed balding scalps that may be associated with actinic field carcinogenesis.

In this study, researchers found that facial papules may be early indicators of frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planopilaris, highlighting the importance of early recognition for diagnosis, especially in premenopausal women.
