This paper reviews the surface degradation of hair and describes how combining 18-MEA with specific surfactants can maintain hydrophobicity on bleached and weathered hair surfaces.

This study found that minoxidil forms a reservoir in the skin, allowing sustained drug delivery even after cleansing, while propylene glycol does not.

This study found that microemulsion and microemulsion-based hydrogels may offer a more effective and sustained topical delivery method for minoxidil compared to conventional solutions for hair loss treatment.

This study found that using monoolein cubic phase nanoparticles with an entrapped hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin/minoxidil complex increased minoxidil skin permeation, but minoxidil retention in the skin was higher with a traditional solution.

This study describes common skin disorders in palliative care patients, emphasizing that conditions like xerosis, pressure ulcers, and fungal infections often require symptomatic treatment focused on quality of life rather than cure, due to limited life expectancy and potential treatment burdens.

PEVs effectively deliver minoxidil through skin.

This review discusses the cornification process of epidermal keratinocytes in forming the skin barrier and reports no new results; it emphasizes the importance for diagnosis and treatment of skin disorders.

This study aimed to enhance the skin penetration of minoxidil by encapsulating it in glycerosomal vesicles, offering a potential improvement in transdermal drug delivery for treating androgenetic alopecia. Results of the investigation were not reported.

This study found that minoxidil exhibits preferential solvation by water in both water-rich and ethanol-rich solvent mixtures.

In this study, pneumatic injections of non-cross-linked hyaluronic acid were associated with improvements in skin texture, pores, wrinkles, and transepidermal water loss in healthy female volunteers.

This study found that using a microfiber towel to dry human hair better preserves hair keratin integrity and wear resistance compared to blow-drying or using a cotton towel, as indicated by stronger alpha-helix structure in FTIR analysis.

This study found that iontophoresis significantly increased the retention of minoxidil sulfate in hair follicles, potentially improving drug delivery for androgenic alopecia treatment.

This study reported that optimized transfersomes and their gel form significantly improved transdermal delivery and hair growth promotion of minoxidil in C57BL/6 mice compared to commercial formulations.

In this animal study, ultrasound combined with a new microbubble formulation of minoxidil increased hair growth rates and improved follicle characteristics more effectively than minoxidil alone.

This study introduced hair capacitance mapping as a promising technique for assessing hair surface moisture dynamics, revealing that weathered hair loses moisture more quickly than intact hair.

This study found that dimethicone with high molecular weight improved hair surface characteristics, while dimethicone copolyol and amodimethicone enhanced manageability by reducing friction or aiding styling on damaged hair.

This article discusses the importance of nurses' understanding of topical emollient therapy for patients with eczema, but it does not provide new clinical results.

This study found that washing hair with surfactants reduces the internal density of hair due to cuticle lifting, and suggests that a cuticle-sealing strategy can inhibit this effect and maintain hair homeostasis.

This study found that sunscreen and moisturizer use was associated with a higher likelihood of developing frontal fibrosing alopecia in the reviewed studies.

This study found that cationic vesicles enhanced minoxidil skin retention and in vivo hair growth efficacy compared to other formulation types due to electrostatic interactions with the skin.

Minoxidil enhances hair growth and preserves the root sheath in cultured follicles.

MEBO ointment helps activate and grow skin stem cells for burn healing.

This study reported that encapsulating minoxidil in transferosomes and transethosomes can enhance skin permeability and drug retention compared to its conventional formulation, potentially increasing efficacy in androgenic alopecia treatment while reducing side effects, especially when transethosomes contain oleic acid.

This study found that the "After Minoxidil" spray improved hair styling and decreased greasiness after using topical minoxidil, which may enhance compliance and effectiveness.

This article explores prevention options for skin breakdown in pediatric intensive care patients, focusing on the effectiveness of barrier protection versus specialty surfaces, but reports no new clinical results.

This study developed lipid-core nanocapsules for encapsulating menthol, improving its solubility and thermal stability, and demonstrated their safety and rapid skin absorption in ex vivo tests, highlighting potential applications for cosmeceuticals.

This study found that treating reconstructed human epidermis with beta-lipohydroxy salicylic acid increased tight junction remnants in the stratum corneum, potentially affecting skin cohesion and desquamation.

This study found that compounded minoxidil solutions in a propylene glycol-free and alcohol-reduced foam remained stable for 180 days, meeting United States Pharmacopeia standards for strength, pH, and antimicrobial effectiveness.
