In this review, cosmetic practices such as non-ablative lasers, autologous fat injections, and oral isotretinoin may help alleviate certain symptoms of frontal fibrosing alopecia, while treatments like deep chemical peels and ablative laser therapies are contraindicated due to potential scarring risks.

In this study, the free androgen index (FAI) was found to be a reliable marker for diagnosing and monitoring adolescent girls with hyperandrogenism, suggesting clinical reference values for PCOS, obesity, and idiopathic hirsutism.

This case report describes the treatment of hirsutism in a 15-year-old obese Mexican girl with flutamide, aiming to improve her social function.

This hospital-based cross-sectional study found that a substantial proportion of women with female pattern hair loss also had metabolic syndrome, with no significant differences in frequency across age, disease duration, or hair loss pattern subgroups.

Certain genetic factors may contribute to frontal fibrosing alopecia in Brazil.

This paper reviews how studying the microbiome of the freshwater polyp Hydra can inform new, microbiome-targeting therapies for human hair follicle and skin diseases; it presents no new experimental findings.

This study developed a double-wavelength laser scanning microphotometer to measure hair shaft and follicle absorbance, improving spatial resolution and reducing light scattering effects in vitro.

This study reviewed clinical data from 60 patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia and found increasing prevalence and generally poor response to treatment, with the cause remaining unclear.

This article proposes renaming frontal fibrosing alopecia to frontal fibrosing alopecia syndrome to better reflect its varied presentations and enhance understanding and treatment approaches.

This review discusses the diagnosis and treatment of hirsutism, emphasizing that a systematic evaluation can determine its cause, while combination therapy effectively manages the condition for most patients.

This study identified significant genetic associations with frontal fibrosing alopecia at four genomic loci, suggesting it is a genetically predisposed immuno-inflammatory disorder influenced by the HLA-B*07: 02 allele.

In this study, intranasal delivery of hair follicle-derived stem cells improved neurological function and reduced brain damage in a rat model of ischemic stroke.

This review highlights available treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting that 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, intralesional steroids, and hydroxychloroquine currently have the most evidence supporting their use, while other treatments show variable results and require further study.

This study found that both bFGF and herbal extracts significantly induced proliferation in human hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells, suggesting their potential for promoting hair growth.
