The conclusion is that certain scalp tissue changes are characteristic of lichen planopilaris, with mucinous perifollicular fibroplasia being a new feature for diagnosis.
research A Clinical Overview of Hair Removal Using Lasers and Light Sources
Lasers and light sources can effectively remove hair, work best on fair skin with dark hair, and usually need multiple treatments.
research The Modulatable Stem Cell Niche: Tissue Interactions During Hair and Feather Follicle Regeneration
The document concludes that for hair and feather growth, it's better to target the environment around stem cells than the cells themselves.
research Prolactin: A Novel Neuroendocrine Regulator of Human Keratin Expression In Situ
Prolactin affects the production of different keratins in human hair, which could lead to new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research The Control of Hair Growth: An Overview
