New treatments and technologies in laser medicine show promise for improving skin conditions, fat reduction, cancer treatment, wound healing, and hair restoration.

Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.

PSA could be a marker for hyperandrogenism in women, but more research is needed.
