This study observed that cutaneous microwounds created by fractional photothermolysis heal differently from typical wounds, displaying rapid re-epithelialization and limited inflammation, which may help reduce scar formation by delaying collagen remodeling and minimizing myofibroblast activation.

This study found that BRG1 is crucial for keratinocyte migration during skin wound healing, as its suppression impairs wound closure by inhibiting migration without affecting cell proliferation or apoptosis.

This study in mice found that fractional photothermolysis can improve dermal scar formation by promoting slow, organized collagen regeneration with minimal myofibroblast activation.

This study concluded that ablative fractional lasers may induce hair regrowth in mice by activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway.

This review discusses the use of ablative and nonablative fractional resurfacing for enhanced topical drug delivery in dermatology and reports no new clinical results; further studies are needed to explore these methods.

This study identified a novel mechanism by which dsRNA-induced TLR3 activation and retinoic acid pathways contribute to new hair follicle formation after deep wounds in mice and suggested a similar potential in humans.

This literature review reported that fractional lasers, like the 1550-nm nonablative erbium-glass laser, may enhance hair regrowth by stimulating a wound healing process, but more randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm their effectiveness and optimize treatment parameters.

This article discusses a wide range of procedures in facial plastic surgery and highlights the recent advancements and trends without reporting new clinical findings.

This study found that sericin dressing containing collagen hydrolysate significantly reduced wound healing time and improved scar quality compared to commercial dressing in split-thickness skin graft donor sites.

This narrative review discusses the evolution and diverse medical applications of laser technologies, particularly in dermatology and skin biology, without reporting new research findings.

This study emphasizes the importance of understanding cosmetic procedures and their risks, particularly for individuals with darker skin, and highlights expert recommendations for pre- and post-procedure skin care, including the use of broad-spectrum sunscreen to prevent and improve pigmentation disorders.

This study found that DPP4 is significantly involved in matrix deposition and fibrosis in human skin fibroblasts, although the exact functions of DPP4 remain unclear.

This study found that mice lacking REDD1 experienced an expansion of dermal white adipose tissue through both hypertrophy and hyperplasia, suggesting a potential therapeutic target for skin adipogenesis regulation.

This study found that CYP11A1-derived vitamin D3 analogs inhibit fibroblast proliferation and decrease collagen production through VDR expression, showing potential antifibrotic and antiproliferative activity in human dermal fibroblasts.

This review details the advancements and benefits of fractional erbium:YAG resurfacing lasers for treating photoaging, acne scarring, and dyschromia, but it presents no new clinical results.

In this study involving 13 patients with vitiligo-associated leukotrichia, minimal hair repigmentation was observed following treatment with fractional CO₂ laser and topical betamethasone, though the method was well tolerated, highlighting the need for further research to optimize treatment parameters.

This study found that combining fractional erbium-glass laser therapy with topical minoxidil significantly improved hair density and diameter in men with androgenetic alopecia compared to using minoxidil alone over a 24-week period, with no serious adverse events reported.

In this study, the researchers found that the effectiveness of a 1,550-nm fractional laser in promoting hair growth in mice depends on the specific combination of beam energy and density, with inappropriate settings potentially causing ulcers or hair follicle injury.

This study found that 1,540 nm fractional erbium-glass laser treatment combined with topical minoxidil significantly increased hair regrowth in alopecia areata patches compared to minoxidil alone, with response rates of 60% versus 16%, though the long-term effects remain unknown.

In this review, the authors report that fractional resurfacing can be a safe and effective technique for treating scars and promoting photorejuvenation in Asian skin, though it requires cautious use to minimize risks like post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and rebound melasma.

This study found that PRP was effective for treating alopecia areata with similar improvement across groups, while topical delivery via fractional CO2 laser or microneedling reduced injection pain.

In this study, researchers evaluated the efficacy of a collagen booster used alongside CO2 fractional laser treatment for skin aging, finding that the combination treatment affected the vascularization and healing process of the skin on a healthy adult's forearm.

This review discusses five popular resurfacing technologies for facial rejuvenation, highlighting their role in achieving smoother, healthier, and younger-looking skin, and reports no new clinical results.

This overview highlights an increase in nonsurgical cosmetic procedures and a growing number of male patients seeking cosmetic treatments, without reporting new clinical results.

Laser technologies improve medical treatments and outcomes.

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

Minoxidil is the only FDA-approved topical drug for treating male or female pattern hair loss, and other medications like finasteride and dutasteride can also increase hair growth.

This study observed that combining nonablative fractional laser treatment with topical minoxidil led to hair regrowth in Chinese alopecia areata patients, noting complete regrowth in some patients and no relapse in the majority at a one-year follow-up, without reported side effects.

This study found that combining fractional CO₂ laser with halometasone cream improved chronic eczema more effectively than halometasone alone, with efficacy varying by laser parameters and showing better results at 4 weeks compared to 1 week. Pain was noted with higher energy treatments.

This book reviews the various types of acne and acneiform conditions, as well as their treatment options, with expert insights from multiple fields.
