Hair disorders are caused by a complex mix of biology, genetics, hormones, and environmental factors, affecting hair growth and leading to conditions like alopecia.

Asian hair is stronger and more damage-resistant than Caucasian hair due to a thicker cuticle layer.

Minoxidil works faster and is more cost-effective for treating hair loss, but platelet-rich plasma microneedling can be an alternative for those who can't use minoxidil.

Trichoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing and managing hair and scalp conditions, often better than traditional methods.

Low-level light therapy, possibly combined with other treatments, may become a leading hair loss treatment, while hirsutism often worsens with age and lacks preventive options.

Dermatoscopy is useful for identifying different hair and scalp conditions and can reduce the need for biopsies.

PRP treatment improves hair growth, and the device used can affect results, with some being more effective.

Genetic mutations can cause hair growth disorders by affecting key genes and signaling pathways.

The Trichoscan system was found to be inaccurate for measuring hair growth, needing better software to be useful.

Latanoprost, a glaucoma drug, showed potential for promoting hair growth in bald monkeys, especially at higher doses.

Finasteride reverses early hair loss and promotes growth.

CE-PTG detects early hair follicle issues in balding areas, helping measure male hair loss.

PRP therapy may increase hair density in pattern hair loss without serious side effects, but more research is needed.
