Trichoscopy can detect early signs of steroid overuse on the scalp, suggesting a need for non-steroidal treatments.

This study found that combining pulsed dye laser with pingyangmycin improved treatment efficacy, scar repair, skin condition, and patient satisfaction in treating post-acne hyperplastic scars, compared to laser alone, without increasing adverse reactions.

In this study, dermoscopy was suggested as a potentially useful tool for improving the clinical recognition of pilomatricoma.

This study found that the Antera 3D® system provided an objective and sensitive method for assessing pediatric pathological scars, capturing significant changes in pigmentation, vascularity, and volume, compared to the traditional Vancouver Scar Scale and dermoscopy, which showed varied sensitivities across different scar parameters.

This case report further supports the association of keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans with acne keloidalis nuchae and tufted hair folliculitis.

This review discusses recent advancements in the management and diagnosis of primary cicatricial alopecias but reports no new clinical results; emerging insights suggest sebaceous gland dysfunction may play a role in their etiopathogenesis.

This review discusses the efficacy and safety of intralesional triamcinolone acetonide for treating acne keloidalis nuchae, highlighting its significant effectiveness with rare side effects when used properly.

This report describes two cases where topical squaric acid dibutylester application in alopecia totalis patients led to severe pustular lesions, necessitating systemic prednisolone treatment.

This study reported that in men with androgenic alopecia, a distinct subclinical hyperpigmentation pattern was observed in the scalp, associated with baldness severity and possibly linked to local melanin production by pilosebaceous units.

This report presents two cases of systemic lupus in male patients with a distinct form of alopecia that combines both scarring and non-scarring elements, highlighting the variability in lupus-related hair loss presentations.

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.

This article reports a case of erosive pustular dermatosis on the scalp of an elderly male, highlighting its complex diagnosis and successful treatment with high-potency topical corticosteroids.

This study found that intralesional triamcinolone acetonide is effective for treating localized patchy alopecia areata, with dermoscopy aiding in early detection of clinical response and adverse effects.

This report describes a rare case of scarring alopecia, diagnosed as lichen planopilaris (LPP), affecting solely the limbs, highlighting the necessity for thorough evaluation of LPP beyond the scalp.

In this retrospective study of 29 patients with scalp burn alopecia, researchers utilized a simple method involving tissue expansion to reconstruct the temporal and lateral sideburn areas, resulting in satisfactory, symmetrical, and standardized aesthetic outcomes according to both objective and subjective evaluations.

Healing psoriatic plaques can cause unexpected hair growth.

This case study reports that a 35-year-old woman developed nonscarring alopecia following the cosmetic use of poly-L-lactic acid on her face and hairline.

This research review explores an algorithmic approach to scalp reconstruction, emphasizing the importance of considering defect location, size, and local scalp anatomy in optimizing cosmetic and functional surgical outcomes.

In this review, retinoids are highlighted as promising agents for promoting scarless skin regeneration by coordinating cellular and molecular processes that suppress fibrosis, enhance re-epithelialization, promote angiogenesis, and enable hair follicle formation, potentially advancing functional skin repair.

This case report suggests a successful outcome with intralesional cidofovir for SCC, although surgical excision remains the preferred treatment.

This study reports that intralesional triamcinolone acetonide was effective and well-tolerated for treating extensive alopecia areata in patients who often showed specific initial hair characteristics.
