This paper discusses cases of unpredictable scarring in hair transplant patients and addresses how less invasive techniques like FUE and SMP may mitigate these issues.

This article reviews Acne Keloidalis Nuchae and presents a successful treatment case using Homoeopathy, emphasizing the need for individualized treatment approaches, but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the characteristics and pathogenesis of acne keloidalis nuchae among men with coarse curly hair, reviewing its association with factors like chronic inflammation and potential roles for metabolic syndrome and infection. It reports no new results.

In this case report, an African American male with signs of acne keloidalis nuchae highlights the condition's chronic nature and need for early intervention to minimize permanent scarring and its psychosocial impact.

Hair transplantation in East Asians needs special techniques to ensure natural results and prevent complications due to their unique hair and scalp characteristics.

This research highlights advancements in reconstructive surgery for managing scars, emphasizing the importance of combined surgical and nonsurgical interventions like platelet-rich plasma and stem cell therapy to prevent and treat thick scar tissue while enhancing functionality and aesthetic outcomes.

In this review, the authors summarize classical and recent insights into the biology and treatment of hypertrophic scars and keloids, concluding that while understanding and strategies have advanced, effective prevention and treatments remain unsatisfactory.

Mechanical tension worsens keloid scars by activating inflammation and fibrosis pathways.

This review examines the mechanisms behind pathological scarring like hypertrophic scars and keloids, highlights the limitations of current treatments, and suggests that biomaterial-enabled delivery of anti-fibrotic statins, such as atorvastatin, may offer a promising therapeutic avenue for managing these scars.

This study discusses a surgical skin planing procedure using new technology and freezing agent that is reported to be a safe, effective treatment for cutaneous defects like pitted acne scars.

This review discusses the role of mechanical forces in skin homeostasis and disease development, including their impact on conditions like keloids, androgenetic alopecia, and acral melanoma, and reports no clinical results; the authors propose modifying these forces as a potential therapeutic strategy.

This article reviews the literature on the off-label use of botulinum toxin for dermatological conditions, highlighting its potential effectiveness in treating rosacea, anal fissures, Raynaud phenomenon, hypertrophic scars, keloids, and hidradenitis suppurativa.

This study reviewed literature on dermatological changes in transgender and gender diverse individuals during gender affirming medical transition, identifying risks like acne and hypertrophic scars, and provided tailored care recommendations for health professionals.

This research discusses autologous mini-punch grafting, a surgical technique for treating stable, minor vitiligo when non-surgical treatments fail, reporting up to 75% repigmentation success in 78% of treated patients, although complications like cobblestoning and graft rejection may occur.

This review article proposes a possible skin-gut-fibrosis axis, suggesting that gut microbial metabolites may influence the development of keloids and hypertrophic scars by affecting immune responses and fibrotic signaling pathways, although direct evidence in skin fibrosis remains limited.

This retrospective study reported significant improvements in keloid scars among 60 patients treated with punch excision and superficial X-ray, with lower Vancouver Scar Scale and Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale scores a year post-treatment and no severe adverse reactions observed.

In this study, researchers found that miR-3606-3p is significantly downregulated in skin fibrosis and correlates with disease severity, with its ability to inhibit key signaling pathways suggesting potential therapeutic applications for conditions like systemic sclerosis and keloids.

This review found that microneedling appears to be a safe and effective option for treating scars and wrinkles, with fewer side effects and shorter recovery time than some other treatments.

Various treatments can improve post-acne scars, but results vary.

This review discusses the heterogeneity of dermal fibroblasts in healthy mouse and human skin and reports no clinical results; the authors highlight potential insights into physiological and pathological wound healing.

This report highlights that scientific collaborations have led to a rise in publications focused on African skin and hair, which could inform the development of locally tailored products and awareness campaigns.

This source describes the fourth volume of the "Guía de Procedimientos en Cirugía Plástica Reconstructiva" as an essential, expert-compiled reference detailing the latest advanced techniques in reconstructive plastic surgery for surgeons, residents, and professionals in the field.

This study highlights the evolving understanding of acne's pathophysiology and suggests that targeting pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β, IL-17, IL-23, and TNFα with biological antibodies may offer new treatment strategies for severe acne and its scars.

This article reviews the skin effects of anabolic-androgenic steroid use in athletes but reports no clinical results.

Tailored nonsurgical cosmetic procedures are crucial for safely treating diverse skin types, especially skin of color.

This review discusses the complex process of wound healing and emerging areas of interest in wound treatment, reporting no new clinical findings.

In this study of elderly patients at an Indian medical center, researchers found that xerosis was the most common physiological skin change and pruritus was the most frequent complaint.

In this study, researchers identified that keloid fibroblasts respond to neurotransmitters from catecholaminergic nerves by producing bone matrix proteins, mediated by β1-adrenergic receptor activation, leading to fibro-osseous reprogramming; blocking this signaling in a rodent model prevented the development of keloid-like pathology.

This review discusses dermal cell heterogeneity in wound healing and scar formation, highlighting the varied roles of different fibroblasts and the potential of skin substitutes without presenting new clinical results.

This review discusses skin diseases in transgender patients receiving gender-affirming hormone therapy and procedures, highlighting unique conditions and the underdiagnosis that affects their quality of life and mental health.
