This review evaluated existing studies on platelet-rich plasma for facial rejuvenation and found limited clinical evidence supporting its effectiveness, suggesting that more research is needed to establish its utility.

In this study, researchers developed a carboxylated β-cyclodextrin formulation to enhance finasteride's physicochemical properties, achieving an encapsulation efficiency of about 85% and indicating potential for controlled drug release in therapeutic applications. Their findings suggest this inclusion complex could improve delivery of hydrophobic drugs like finasteride.

This study presents a novel composite hydrogel dressing with berberine-loaded silk fibroin microspheres and Calotropis gigantea fibers, demonstrating enhanced antibacterial activity, mechanical strength, and wound healing capabilities in treating chronic and infected wounds.

This review discusses photobiomodulation as a potential treatment for hair loss, highlighting its safety and possible effectiveness but noting cost, protocol standardization, and expectation management as limitations; it reports no new clinical results.

This review highlights the potential of plant-derived natural compounds as biocompatible and biodegradable materials in dermal and transdermal delivery systems, emphasizing their unexplored benefits and detailing recent advances in isolation techniques and drug delivery technologies.

This study reports two cases where localized prostate cancer with low PSA levels was incidentally detected through CT scans performed for other medical reasons.

In this review, the authors discussed how men seek cosmetic procedures for distinct reasons compared to women, emphasizing the need for dermatologists to consider male-specific desires for discrete treatments with minimal downtime and differences in psychological motivations.

This study concluded that while home-based intense pulsed light, laser diodes, radiofrequency, and light-emitting diode devices are recommended for certain skin conditions, ultraviolet B phototherapy for psoriasis showed mixed evidence compared to clinic treatments.

In this study, researchers developed a wearable red and blue LED patch and a sprayable fibrin gel to treat infected wounds at home, demonstrating effective infection control and enhanced wound healing in diabetic mice and minipigs.

This review assessed evidence on laser therapies for alopecia areata, reporting that the 308-nm excimer laser showed hair regrowth in several studies, while more research is needed for other laser types.

This study found that treating a 3D hair dermal papilla model with rice bran extract and electromagnetic fields increased melanogenesis, suggesting potential for vitiligo and white hair therapies.

This article reviews the growing trend of at-home laser and light devices for treating conditions like acne, hair removal, and psoriasis, emphasizing their popularity and the need for cautious use but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that high doses of cyproterone acetate were associated with an increased risk of meningioma, especially with exposure longer than one year.

Warts in HIV-positive men can have serious abnormal cell growth, needing careful analysis and treatment to prevent cancer.

The study found that among young Brazilian women, the likelihood of metabolic syndrome in those with PCOS is strongly associated with BMI and the phenotype involving menstrual irregularity and hyperandrogenism.

This study found that dual-frequency ultrasound with microbubble cavitation significantly enhanced minoxidil delivery and hair growth in both lab and animal models compared to single-frequency ultrasound, without damaging the skin in mice.

This study quantifies the follicular uptake of tea tree oil in bovine udder skin, with microemulsion showing the highest concentration among different formulations tested.

In this study, normal weight adolescents with PCOS showed increased insulin resistance and significantly lower levels of high molecular weight adiponectin compared to controls, despite no other metabolic differences.

This study observed that electro-acupuncture reduced global DNA methylation and DNMT3b expression in a PCOS-like rat model, suggesting a role of hypothalamic DNA methylation in PCOS development and treatment.

This study presents computational modeling and experimental analysis of the HGT protein KAP8.1, identifying key structural features that may influence hair's response to environmental conditions.

In this study, low-level light therapy using a new helmet-type device significantly increased hair density and thickness in patients with androgenetic alopecia, showing no adverse events or side effects, suggesting it may be a safe and effective treatment option for both sexes.

This study reported that a 3D-printed LED photobiomodulation device is technically and financially feasible, but requires further experimental and clinical testing before being used in human healthcare.

This study indicated that prediabetes may make ovaries more susceptible to PCOS-like changes, with mild hyperglycemia potentially having harmful effects on ovarian health.

This case series reports successful treatment of refractory folliculitis decalvans using surgical excision with second-intention healing and guarded high-tension suturing, resulting in long-term remission without recurrence over a 10–24 month follow-up period.

This study found that ablating centrosomes in developing epidermis alters keratinocyte division without majorly affecting differentiation, suggesting early epidermal development is driven by high proliferation and cell delamination.

This study found that FDA-cleared devices for preparing platelet-rich plasma showed inconsistent product quality, with variable platelet counts and inadequate quality control performance, suggesting clinical improvement may not rely on platelet concentration.

The researchers developed a new follicular unit extraction system with adjustable needle lengths and precise rotation speed, which they report as being superior to existing systems for non-incisional hair transplants.

This study found that 95% of untreated advanced-stage follicular lymphoma patients responded to a single course of the Bexxar regimen, with 75% achieving complete remission and remaining disease-free for years.

This review discusses the application of active transdermal technologies in cosmetic devices for skin restoration and enhancement, reporting no new clinical results.

This study found that low-level laser treatment with the HairMax Lasercomb significantly increased terminal hair density in both men and women with pattern hair loss, with no serious adverse events reported.
