This study found that Malassezia folliculitis, common among young adult males, can be distinguished from truncal acne by its clinical features and responds well to antifungal treatment.

A male patient developed frontal fibrosing alopecia after antiandrogen therapy for prostate cancer.

This review discusses the current limitations in insurance coverage and access to facial masculinization surgery in the US and suggests that expanding insurance policies may help reduce care inequities.

In this study, subcutaneous injections of murine epidermal growth factor in marsupial pouch young inhibited the formation of hair follicles and associated structures, altering normal follicle development.

This study highlights that Trichophyton mentagrophytes genotype VII, primarily transmitted sexually among men who have sex with men, has established itself in Europe, necessitating awareness and surveillance to prevent its spread.

This study investigated hair enhancement treatments used by transgender men in the U.S. and found that while 90% used testosterone therapy, 44.1% sought additional facial hair enhancement options such as topical minoxidil, despite significant safety concerns reported by 77.3% of participants.

This study reviewed 18 postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting frontotemporal hairline recession and eyebrow loss, often treated with steroids, triamcinolone, and other medications.

This study observed that facial feminization surgery significantly improved facial appearance and alleviated gender dysphoria among Chinese transgender females, with all patients expressing satisfaction post-surgery.

This study of monozygotic transgender male twins observed that consistent hormone therapy led to physical changes such as deepening voice and increased facial/body hair, with no reported mood-related adverse effects.

This study reports a case of a 59-year-old female with refractory follicular mucinosis and diffuse scalp alopecia who achieved complete clinical remission following treatment with a combination of topical tacalcitol and photodynamic therapy.

This document supplements a study on androgenetic alopecia, describing materials and methods, and includes figures showing fibrosis in the bulge region of miniaturized hair follicles.

This study found that 11% of cutaneous focal mucinosis lesions demonstrated follicular induction, which can mimic basal cell carcinoma histologically and complicate diagnosis.

This study reports that the loss of the protein Memo in mice leads to a reduced lifespan and suggests that Memo is a key regulator of FGFR signaling and vitamin D production.

This case report describes a 41-year-old woman with alopecia mucinosa presenting multiple enlarging facial plaques, indicating a potentially non-benign course despite prior classifications.

This case report highlights the diagnostic challenges of distinguishing folliculotropic mycosis fungoides from alopecia areata and lichen planopilaris, emphasizing the importance of histopathological evaluation for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

This review discusses the bioactive compounds and biological activities of Polygonum multiflorum Thunb. and highlights concerns about its hepatotoxicity, but reports no new clinical results.

This study introduces a novel in vitro model for clubfoot fibrosis to enable high-throughput drug screening and found that while the model increased collagen deposition, the antifibrotic drug minoxidil effectively inhibited the expression of collagen cross-linking enzymes.

This study reported that frontal fibrosing alopecia predominantly affects postmenopausal women and identified potential risk factors like frequent β-blocker use and sunscreen application, indicating the need for further research.

This study found that eyelash loss, facial papules, and body hair involvement were linked to severe frontal fibrosing alopecia, and antiandrogens were the most effective treatment.

This case report highlights that frontal fibrosing alopecia can occur in black patients and may resemble androgenetic alopecia, underscoring the importance of considering FFA when diagnosing frontotemporal alopecia in this population.

This study observed that repeated hair follicle sampling is feasible and reliable for measuring FMR1 mRNA and FMRP in individuals with Fragile X syndrome, supporting its use in longitudinal studies.
