This article reviews lichen planopilaris, its presentation, and treatment challenges, and emphasizes the need for more research into its pathogenesis and therapy efficacy; it reports no new findings.

This case report describes a 62-year-old woman who developed chin and upper lip hair growth after using bimatoprost for glaucoma, highlighting hirsutism as a possible side effect of prostaglandin analogues.

This study found that temporary or permanent leukotrichia may occur after intense pulsed light therapy for hair removal, likely due to differing thermal effects on melanocytes and hair follicle cells.

This case report describes a 43-year-old man who developed lupus miliaris disseminatus faciei after discontinuation of cyclosporine A post-stem cell transplantation, successfully treated with oral isotretinoin and topical tacrolimus.

This study found a higher prevalence of metabolic syndrome in patients with lichen planus, especially those with mucosal involvement, which is associated with increased cardiovascular and diabetes risk.

This study highlights lichen planopilaris as a form of scarring hair loss with symptoms like shedding and itching, and notes successful treatment options such as topical and oral antiinflammatory medications to preserve hair follicles by early intervention.

This case report describes a woman with systemic lupus erythematosus who developed non-progressive visual field defects after hypertensive retinopathy, with cotton wool spots indicating retinal nerve fiber microinfarctions.

This study hypothesizes that postinflammatory hyperpigmentation in ashy dermatosis may result from basal cell apoptosis, as evidenced by consistent histologic findings across nine patients.

In this study, high doses of Lepidium sativum seeds extract were reported to cause toxicity and tissue damage in animals, suggesting the need for careful use under medical supervision.

This study found that 6 months of Low-Level-Laser Therapy significantly increased overall hair density, particularly Vellus hair density, in women with hormonal, age-related hair loss.

This study analyzed randomized trials on low-level light therapy combined with minoxidil for androgenetic alopecia, reporting either superior or equivalent hair regrowth compared to minoxidil alone, with initial improvements tapering over time.

This review discusses the application of photodynamic therapy for treating oral lichen planus and indicates its potential benefits, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this reported case, a 30-year-old man with a long history of alopecia universalis experienced limited regrowth of eyebrows and eyelashes after six months of deuruxolitinib, despite unchanged scalp hair, suggesting site-specific potential for hair regrowth in challenging cases.

A woman's hair loss was correctly diagnosed as Lichen planopilaris after initial misdiagnosis, highlighting the usefulness of trichoscopy in diagnosing hair disorders.

This study concluded that exposing anestrous brood mares to a 16-hour photoperiod in early December led to endocrinologically normal estrous cycles starting within two months, enabling earlier breeding and foaling.

This case report describes a Taiwanese woman with lipedematous alopecia, highlighting rare mucin deposition as a feature that warrants further investigation.

This case report described a patient with unilateral branch retinal artery occlusion due to previously undiagnosed systemic lupus erythematosus, where systemic immunotherapy led to significant visual improvement and resolution of macular edema.

This study identified specific genetic variants as the cause of visual impairment and non-syndromic alopecia in two brothers, reinforcing the link between PDE6H variants and achromatopsia and LPAR6 variants and alopecia.

This research reports a new autosomal recessive mutation in mice, 'lanceolate hair', causing generalized alopecia and hair shaft abnormalities, which may serve as a model for Netherton's syndrome in humans.

This report describes a rare case of painless thyroiditis induced by prolonged off-label use of Lugol’s solution in a 59-year-old woman.

The abstract highlights that lichen planus can manifest as cicatricial alopecia or lichen planopilaris, while discoid lupus erythematosus, a common form of lupus erythematosus, typically causes scarring alopecia. Results are not reported here.

Latanoprost eye drops caused excessive hair growth and eyelash whitening in a woman.

This study found that hCG decreased 5α-reductase and androgen receptor levels in skin samples from women in vitro, suggesting that human skin responds to LH/hCG treatment.

In this case study, a 6-year-old child with autosomal recessive woolly hair showed significant hair growth and sustained improvement with a 4-year combination treatment of botanical extracts, though the precise mechanisms need further research.

This review discusses lichen planopilaris in children and highlights its rarity, potential for misdiagnosis, and need for suspicion in atypical or treatment-resistant alopecia cases, but reports no new results.

This study found that low-level laser therapy significantly increased hair growth in women with androgenic alopecia, achieving a 37% greater increase in hair counts compared to placebo.

This report suggests a causal connection between hyaluronic acid filler injections and the development of xanthelasma, possibly through an inflammatory reaction that increases vascular permeability and LDL leakage.

This study suggests that using a non-medicated, hypo-allergenic scalp clarifying shampoo may improve hair volume and reduce shedding in women with lichen planopilaris and female pattern hair loss.

This study reported that lichen planopilaris predominantly affects females over 60, with a registered prevalence rate of 0.02581%, and is often associated with autoimmune diseases like systemic lupus erythematosus, suggesting a need for further research to enhance treatment approaches.
