This research review explores an algorithmic approach to scalp reconstruction, emphasizing the importance of considering defect location, size, and local scalp anatomy in optimizing cosmetic and functional surgical outcomes.

In this clinical case report, a 10-year-old girl developed acute hair matting three weeks after scalp trauma and frequent povidone-iodine use, suggesting that scalp injuries and antiseptic overuse can be risk factors for this condition, especially when hair care is poor.

This review discusses foreheadplasty techniques, highlighting that using hairline incisions can maintain or lower the hairline, and reports no new clinical results.

This narrative review outlines the biological costs of hair extensions, such as traction leading to hair loss and scalp issues, and suggests a prevention-focused model involving risk assessment, surveillance, and tiered therapies to minimize alopecia risk and maintain scalp health.

This article reviews special techniques for reconstructing the appearance of patients with scalp injuries, highlighting the versatility of scalp expansion, advancement flaps, and follicular unit hair transplantation, and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that hair transplantation to lower the frontal hairline resulted in high satisfaction scores from both patients (average 4.2 out of 5) and surgeons (average 4.3 out of 5), suggesting it as a viable option for addressing high forehead concerns.

This study developed a hat-shaped device with wearable sensors to estimate scalp moisture content using machine learning, demonstrating that it can provide accurate measurements comparable to professional scalp analyzers without the need for high-cost equipment.

This case report describes erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp triggered by contact dermatitis from a glued-on hair piece, marking the first instance of this specific cause.

This study observed that women with early-stage breast cancer often felt inadequately prepared for the discomfort and time commitments of scalp cooling during chemotherapy, leading to the development of patient-co-produced informational resources to better prepare them.

This study found that deep plane fixation in scalp surgeries allowed for tension-reduced wound closures and increased tissue excision compared to techniques without deep plane fixation.

This paper discusses a method for eyebrow reconstruction using intermediate hair from the forehead hairline with a pedicled temporoparietal fascial flap and reports no new clinical results.

In this analysis, the authors examine how hairdressing techniques like thinning and micro-graduation can correct women's hairlines by softening optical contours and enhancing visual symmetry, emphasizing the relevance of individual factors such as morphology and stylistic expectations in selecting these non-medical approaches.

This study describes a new two-step method for effectively removing hair particles from split-thickness skin grafts from the scalp, potentially preventing foreign-body reactions at recipient sites.

This article reviews options and principles for reconstructing defects of the scalp, skull, orbit, and maxilla, but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses tinea capitis prevention and treatment strategies, emphasizing the importance of systemic therapy for effective antifungal action and reducing contagion risk.

Scalp hypothermia can prevent chemotherapy-induced hair loss but is not suitable for all patients, and more research is needed to improve prevention methods.

This study reports that using a combined approach of free osteoseptocutaneous fibula flap and temporal artery-based scalp flap provided satisfactory aesthetic and functional outcomes in reconstructing gunshot-inflicted composite mandibular defects in males.

This study describes new devices, "HairMeasure" and "Scalp Zone Identifier," which offer an economical method to calculate Hair Mass Index without disposable materials.

This study found that prototype right heart circulatory assist devices significantly improved hemodynamics and reduced pulmonary vascular resistances in piglet models of acute hemodynamic shock.

This research suggests that intraoperative unilateral occipital artery ligation can reduce the risk of complications like scalp necrosis, offering advantages such as improved visualization and reduced asymmetry during extensive scalp lift surgeries.

This study reported that using hair gel is a cheap and practical method for preventing hair interference during otoplasty surgeries, as it keeps hair in place under sterile conditions without patient complaints about maintaining the gel for two days post-operation.

The bronze head shows the high skill and beauty valued by ancient Greek sculptors.

This case report describes a 10-year-old girl with a cosmetically concerning forehead lesion and a history of right frontal headaches, featuring a small palpable and pulsatile erythematous lesion with associated macular erythema.

This study reports cutaneous atrophy and alopecia in four patients following greater occipital nerve blockade with triamcinolone and lidocaine, suggesting that alternative steroids may reduce these side effects.

In this article review, it was reported that systemic oral antifungal treatments are essential for effectively managing tinea capitis, as topical antifungals alone cannot reach the hair follicle roots but may reduce spore transmission when used alongside oral medications.

This study suggests that integrating scalp reduction into male pattern baldness treatment may reduce time, trouble, and cost by about one third compared to conventional hair restoration methods.

This study assessed outcomes and complications of upper-face feminization surgery among 20 transgender patients, highlighting that insufficient browbone reduction was a common issue in prior surgeries, and emphasizing meticulous planning to prevent revisions and dissatisfaction.

This review examines evidence on the effectiveness of cold caps or scalp cooling systems in reducing chemotherapy-induced hair loss, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article describes cases of tinea capitis in young Black and Latina children, highlighting the condition's diverse presentations such as erythema, scaling, and subtle signs like comma hairs, but reports no new clinical results.
