Over 40% of postmenopausal women experience hair loss, with treatments aiming to stop further loss and possibly thicken hair.

This review discusses the complex causes and treatment options for female androgenetic alopecia but does not present new research findings, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis and treatment.

This study concluded that adding low-level laser therapy to topical minoxidil did not significantly improve hair density in androgenetic alopecia patients compared to using minoxidil alone.

This study found that combining low-level light therapy with platelet-rich plasma significantly improved hair parameters in men with androgenic alopecia, although most improvements decreased after treatment stopped.

Hair loss treated with minoxidil, finasteride, laser/light, hair transplant, and scalp prostheses; more research needed for skin of color.

This study observed that a combination of micro-needling and low-level light/laser therapy significantly increased hair density in patients with mild to moderate androgenic alopecia, showing an increase of 12 hairs/cm² after 16 weeks, compared to baseline.

This study reported that nanoemulsions significantly improved the skin permeability of thiocolchicoside compared to its aqueous solution, suggesting they are effective carriers for its transdermal delivery.

This review reports that low-level laser therapy may effectively prevent and alleviate oral mucositis from chemotherapy, supporting its use as a viable treatment option.

This study found that finasteride-loaded microemulsions using poloxamer 124 significantly enhanced skin penetration of the drug compared to a standard solution, primarily through targeting hair follicles via the transfollicular pathway, with intercluster, intercellular, and transcellular pathways contributing less.

Laser technologies improve medical treatments and outcomes.

This review discusses cases and research on paradoxical hair growth after laser hair removal and explores laser and light therapies for treating alopecia, but reports no new results.

This case report describes successful CO2 ablation treatment of porokeratotic adnexal ostial nevus in an 8-year-old boy, with marked improvement over a 12-year follow-up.

This review discusses skin diseases in transgender patients receiving gender-affirming hormone therapy and procedures, highlighting unique conditions and the underdiagnosis that affects their quality of life and mental health.

Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM) is a useful tool for studying how drugs interact with skin and diagnosing skin disorders, despite some limitations.

This review summarizes the current treatment modalities for frontal fibrosing alopecia and provides a practical guide for clinicians, but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews home-use laser and intense pulsed light systems for hair removal and growth, noting limited efficacy and safety data and emphasizing the need for long-term studies.

This study found that laser hair removal results in females were not influenced by hormonal fluctuations during different menstrual cycle phases, although pain tolerance was slightly lower during menstruation without reaching statistical significance.

In this study, both fractional carbon dioxide laser therapy and cryotherapy were found to be effective and safe for treating patchy alopecia areata, showing similar efficacy in improving hair growth compared to untreated control patches.

Certain hairstyles can cause scalp diseases, smoking is linked to hair loss, 5% minoxidil foam is effective for hair loss treatment, and various factors influence wound healing and hair growth.

Hair transplantation has improved to more natural-looking results and is complemented by effective non-surgical treatments, with ongoing research into hair follicle cloning.

This review discusses the evolution of hair restoration surgical techniques, emphasizing that gradual improvements to existing methods are safer than radical changes, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that using a combination of ablative CO₂ fractional laser and fetal fibroblast transplantation significantly reduced scarring in mice, with long-term sphere-forming cultured fibroblasts producing scar appearances closest to normal skin.

This study found that blue laser irradiation reduced ATP levels and cell viability in mouse skin by increasing oxidative stress through the production of reactive oxygen species.

This review discusses both conventional and new pharmaceutical treatments for hair loss, as well as various natural and herbal remedies, but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses advancements in understanding how skin stem cells and fibroblasts contribute to scar formation, highlighting current and potential therapies aimed at preventing or reducing scarring, yet notes that effective treatments without significant side effects are still lacking.

This report suggests a causal connection between hyaluronic acid filler injections and the development of xanthelasma, possibly through an inflammatory reaction that increases vascular permeability and LDL leakage.

This review discusses the dermatologic features of PCOS as potential early indicators of the syndrome and notes that treatment of these conditions may enhance quality of life and psychological well-being, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews various types of primary cicatricial alopecias and emphasizes the importance of accurate diagnosis to improve management strategies, particularly detailing remaining lymphocytic forms and expanding on neutrophilic and mixed types.
