In a laboratory study, researchers found that a novel Bioactive Crosslink Repair Complex improved both the protection and repair of chemically damaged hair, enhancing tensile strength, shine, and cuticle alignment when added to bleaching mixtures and leave-in conditioners.

In this placebo-controlled clinical study, a cream containing 4% capryloyl glycine and 1% glycine soy‐fermented extract effectively inhibited ODC1 activity and improved hypertrichosis in 91.7% of Caucasian female patients on the forearms, whereas no improvement was observed with the placebo.

This research found that combining a 308-nm excimer laser with oral compound glycyrrhizin and topical 0.03% tacrolimus was more effective for treating pediatric facial and cervical vitiligo, resulting in faster and higher rates of repigmentation with minimal adverse effects compared to glycyrrhizin and tacrolimus alone.

This review discusses the choice and formulation of medicated and cosmetic shampoos for scalp disorders and hair aesthetics, providing guidelines based on hair types and patient age, and reports no new results.

This review outlines guidelines for designing Janus hydrogel bioadhesives, highlighting their potential to enhance clinical applications in tissue repair and regenerative medicine by mimicking natural biological barriers, although challenges remain in optimizing their asymmetric surface designs.

In this study, a novel injectable hydrogel with antibacterial and hemostatic properties showed promise in promoting the healing of MRSA-infected skin wounds.

This study found that Polyquaternium-87 significantly reduced friction forces on hair surfaces treated with various shampoo formulations, highlighting its potential for improving hair care products.

This abstract introduces TrichoFoam™, a new foaming vehicle for compounding pharmacies, designed to be a gentle, non-irritating option for alopecia treatment, acknowledging that current topical treatments are limited and oral products may cause adverse effects.

In this study, researchers developed a long-lasting antibacterial coating for medical implants by anchoring silver nanoparticles onto polyamide surfaces, demonstrating potential to improve implant safety and effectiveness by reducing infection and inflammation.

This study concluded that an adapalene nanohydrogel containing Tween-80 could be a promising and stable topical treatment option for acne vulgaris due to enhanced skin permeability and stability compared to other formulations.

This study concluded that Glycolon is the preferred suture material for tooth extraction surgery due to its superior mechanical properties and capillarity compared to other materials.

This study found that nanostructured lipid carriers could serve as a promising vehicle for topical Acitretin delivery in psoriasis treatment, potentially reducing oral side effects and enhancing patient compliance.

The study found that both mometasone and calcipotriol ointments effectively reduced alopecia severity in localized alopecia areata, with calcipotriol having fewer side effects, while tacrolimus showed no significant effect.

This study found that polymeric micelle nanocarriers delivered pharmacologically relevant amounts of spironolactone to the epidermis and upper dermis, with higher delivery to pilosebaceous units, suggesting potential for treating glucocorticoid-induced impaired wound healing and pilosebaceous androgen-related skin diseases.

The researchers reported that sterol surfactants with a bulky planar structure effectively solubilized ultraviolet ray absorbers, offering a stable solution more efficiently than other surfactants.

In this study, oral etretinate resulted in increased hair length and loss of beading in a childhood monilethrix case, while the scalp's keratosis pilaris persisted.

This study found that while short-term use of PEG-400 and Thiazone affected rat skin structure, the changes were reversible with no long-term effects observed.

This study demonstrated that a new topical treatment using ketotifen-loaded microneedles, designed for prolonged release, significantly reduced inflammatory markers in an animal model of allergic conjunctivitis, suggesting enhanced therapeutic delivery and sustained ocular benefits.

Platelet-rich plasma doesn't prevent hair loss from chemotherapy, and mononuclear cells only help against hair loss from one specific chemotherapy drug.

This research concluded that the novel hydrogel PlacMA, derived from human placenta and curable by visible light, shows promise for cell culture and tissue engineering applications due to its tunable properties.

This report describes an 11-year-old girl with peripilar keratin casts, a condition often underdiagnosed and mistaken for nits, highlighting the usefulness of keratolytic treatments in management.

This study found that topical clobetasol propionate cream was more effective than hydrocortisone cream in reducing hair loss surface area in children with patchy alopecia areata over 24 weeks, with no serious adverse effects.

In this study, Doublebase gel was more effective in maintaining and increasing skin hydration compared to Aqueous cream BP, with higher patient satisfaction and preference for future use.

This review examines current evidence on the optimal concentration of intralesional corticosteroids for treating limited, patchy alopecia areata and provides no new clinical findings.

This study explored a keratin, sodium alginate, and carboxymethyl chitosan hydrogel modified with tannic acid and found it to have promising wound-healing qualities, including similar elasticity to human skin, antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, and effective water retention. These attributes suggest potential applications in biomedical engineering.
