This review discusses the applications of low level laser therapy (LLLT) in wound healing, pain reduction, and treating various conditions, but reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the need for randomized controlled trials for serious diseases.

This editorial discusses the terminology and distinctions between Low-Level Light/Laser Therapy and Photobiomodulation Therapy but reports no new clinical findings.

This study concluded that label-retaining cells in mouse epidermis differ in their sensitivity to proliferative stimuli, influencing their division and potential transdifferentiation without consistently depleting their population.

This study found that while genetic ancestry affects physical appearance traits in Latin American populations, it accounts for only a modest portion of the observed variation.

This study identified three novel genetic loci associated with PCOS and found similar genetic architecture across different diagnostic criteria, with evidence suggesting genetic links between PCOS and various metabolic and psychological traits.

This study observed that the majority of side effects from laser-assisted hair removal were associated with ruby and alexandrite lasers, particularly in patients with tanned or darker skin types.

This document outlines recommendations from an international panel on testosterone therapy for aging men with late-onset hypogonadism, emphasizing the need for careful assessment and monitoring due to limited long-term safety data.

In this study, finasteride 1 mg/day for 12 months did not improve hair growth or slow hair thinning in postmenopausal women with androgenetic alopecia compared to placebo.

This study found that late-onset systemic lupus erythematosus in a French cohort was characterized by a lower disease severity but reduced survival mainly attributed to aging-related factors.

This study found that unilateral topical latanoprost use for glaucoma was associated with hypertrichosis and increased pigmentation of eyelashes in the treated eye compared to the untreated eye.

This article discusses the factors involved in optimizing laser hair removal, emphasizing patient selection, laser safety, and understanding laser–tissue interactions, but presents no new clinical findings.

This study found that glycolytic metabolism and lactate production are crucial for hair follicle stem cell activation, and manipulating these processes can stimulate the hair cycle.

In this study, researchers identified 18 genetic associations with scalp and facial hair traits in Latin Americans, including novel loci for hair greying and balding, with implications for understanding hair evolution.

This study observed that vitamin D receptor knockout mice exhibit impaired epidermal differentiation and progressive hair loss, suggesting the importance of the vitamin D receptor in normal skin and hair follicle development.

This review discusses the potential mechanisms and evidence supporting low-level laser therapy for stimulating hair growth in men and women, while noting its safety and effectiveness but needing further study on specific parameters.

This study found that the HairMax LaserComb® significantly increased hair density and was safe and well tolerated for treating androgenetic alopecia in men compared to a sham device.

This article reviews the biological and physical principles of laser hair removal and reports that current laser systems do not consistently achieve permanent hair follicle destruction across treated areas.

This study found that low-level laser treatment with the HairMax Lasercomb significantly increased terminal hair density in both men and women with pattern hair loss, with no serious adverse events reported.

This review reports that current in-office laser hair removal devices, particularly the Nd:YAG system for pigmented skin, effectively provide long-term hair removal, though more research on home-use devices is needed.

Minoxidil increases blood flow in balding scalps, possibly reversing hair loss.

This article reviews considerations and guidelines for testosterone therapy in older men with low testosterone levels but does not provide new clinical results, emphasizing the need for ongoing evaluation and careful management, particularly regarding risks related to prostate and cardiovascular health.

This study found that adding topical eflornithine to laser hair removal significantly improved the reduction of unwanted facial hair in women over a 6-month period, compared to laser treatment alone.

This study found that in lactating Holstein cows, hair from the tail switch, which grows faster and is more sensitive to cortisol changes, is ideal for measuring hair cortisol levels.

This study found that low level laser therapy at 655 nm significantly increased hair counts in males with androgenetic alopecia.

This study found no evidence supporting the hypothesis that Aβ afferents sprout into the superficial laminas of the spinal cord after nerve injury in rats.

This study found that anagen-phase hair follicles in mice are particularly sensitive to damage by ruby laser pulses, resulting in alopecia without scarring, suggesting enhanced laser hair removal strategies.

This study found that combining near-infrared laser phototherapy with indocyanine green application may improve acne vulgaris by reducing active lesions and inflammation without side effects.

This study concluded that terminal Schwann cells are essential for the maintenance and regeneration of mechanosensory lanceolate complexes at hair follicles in adult mice.

This study found that laminin-511 is crucial for hair morphogenesis in mice, as it influences primary cilia formation and dermal papilla maintenance through noggin and sonic hedgehog signaling.
