In this study, combining endoscopic forehead lifting with hairline lowering successfully rejuvenated the upper facial area in 194 patients by lowering hairlines by an average of 18 mm and raising eyebrows by 5 mm, without serious complications.

This source describes wound healing as a complex biological process that requires precise regulation and coordination among various cells, cytokines, and signaling pathways to achieve tissue repair, although specific findings or results are not provided in the abstract.

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 found that heart-inspired hollow hydrogel-based scaffolds enhanced regenerative capability in osteoporotic bone defects and increased cell number when using a mechanical-assisted post-bioprinting strategy.

This study describes a method to create keratin hydrogels with adjustable erosion rates by mixing different ratios of keratose and kerateine, enabling controlled release of therapeutic agents like insulin-like growth factor 1.

The researchers reported that hydrogels made from methacrylated glycol chitosan and hyaluronic acid with chondroitin sulfate may be suitable for load bearing soft tissue repair, showing enhanced chondrocyte viability and metabolic activity.

This study reports on a 46-year-old female with a high hairline who underwent hairline-lowering surgery using bone-tunneling suture fixation, achieving an average of 2 cm reduction, equivalent to transplanting up to 3,000 hair grafts, with satisfactory results for both patient and surgeons.

The new anti-aging ingredient improves skin hydration, elasticity, and reduces wrinkles.

This review discusses how using hydrogels as a three-dimensional culture platform for mesenchymal stem cells might affect the production of extracellular vesicles, highlighting challenges in standardization and opportunities to boost EV yield via combined hydrogels and bioreactor methods.

In this study, the researchers developed a living microecological hydrogel containing Chlorella and Bacillus subtilis that showed potential in promoting the healing of infected diabetic wounds by providing continuous oxygen delivery and anti-infective properties.

Successful outcomes depend on accurate diagnosis and strong doctor-patient relationships.

In this study, researchers developed injectable micropore-forming hydrogels that enhance tissue adhesion strength and promote wound healing by allowing better cell infiltration and inducing hair follicle regeneration in skin incision wound models.

In this review, the authors examined different surgical techniques for achieving brow lift effects, considering patient characteristics and goals to determine the most suitable approach for each case.

This study developed a microdroplet technology to produce cell microspheres that successfully induced hair follicle regeneration in a mouse model, suggesting potential improvements in hair loss treatments.

The hydrogel helps heal seawater-immersed wounds by reducing infection and inflammation.

This study identified an optimal sulfate-free and silicone-free conditioning shampoo formulation using 1% hyaluronic acid at 800 kDa, 10% acidic sophorolipid, and 1% sodium chloride, which maintains essential conditioning and cleansing properties without compromising on performance.

This review discusses transdermal drug delivery using hydrogel-forming microneedles and highlights their potential for disease treatment, but notes challenges in their clinical application.

This study observed that using ultra-high-frequency ultrasound with 70 MHz probes effectively assessed the distribution of hyaluronic acid fillers and improvements in nasolabial fold wrinkles, with significant changes in dermal thickness and wrinkle scores maintained 24 weeks after treatment.

This study found that while hyaluronic acid fillers can enhance facial balance and aesthetics, particularly in the temple area, they carry significant risks like vascular occlusion and blindness, highlighting the need for careful technique and product selection to ensure safety.
