This study evaluated the 308-nm excimer laser as an adjuvant treatment for frontal fibrosing alopecia and found it may stabilize hairline recession and improve erythema and perifollicular hyperkeratosis, with transient erythema as the only reported adverse effect.

This case report describes a 6-year-old girl diagnosed with the rare concurrence of monilethrix and trichorrhexis nodosa, characterized by sparse, brittle hair, who showed minimal clinical improvement with low-dose oral and topical minoxidil treatment.

This article discusses the characteristics, diagnosis, and clinical presentation of different variants of lichen planopilaris on the scalp, with emphasis on cicatricial alopecia and the importance of clinical and trichoscopic monitoring; it presents no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers found that mogamulizumab-associated rashes and alopecia are common in patients treated for mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome and may be linked with a good treatment response.

This study found that scarring alopecia is common in autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis patients and significantly correlates with the disease's severity, highlighting the need for thorough hair evaluations in clinical management.

This review discusses the potential of P. polyphylla saponins to treat acne through antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and antioxidant effects, noting that acne's complex pathogenesis makes this line of research promising for future studies.

This study examined the clinicopathologic and trichoscopic characteristics of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans and identified terminal hair involvement and follicular hyperkeratosis as key diagnostic features.

This study highlights that mutations in the MBTPS2 gene can lead to dermatological disorders like IFAP syndrome and severe bone diseases such as X-Linked Osteogenesis Imperfecta, emphasizing the significance of understanding these genetic variants for disease mechanisms and associations.

In this case report, a 45-year-old Jordanian woman was diagnosed with Clouston syndrome, an autosomal-dominant disorder characterized by alopecia and nail dystrophy due to a mutation in the GJB6 gene, though she lacked the typical palmoplantar keratoderma.

In this 2-year prospective study, researchers observed that weight loss through bariatric surgery in patients with morbid obesity led to improvements in various skin conditions, although it also resulted in hair loss (telogen effluvium) for over half of the participants.

This study in Morocco found that all women with frontal fibrosing alopecia presented frontotemporal hairline recession, with trichoscopic features such as perifollicular erythema and follicular hyperkeratosis being indicative of the condition, and suggested a potential link between cosmetic products or emotional factors and the disease.

In this study, bariatric surgery in patients with morbid obesity improved various skin conditions, although acute telogen effluvium was common, with notable reductions in facial sebum and skin elasticity changes.

In this paper, regression of proliferative necrotizing otitis externa lesions in young cats was reported following systemic and topical immunomodulatory therapy.
