In this study, photodynamic therapy was found to achieve permanent reduction of nonpigmented hair in mice, unlike an 800-nm diode laser, by targeting the hair matrix through repeated sessions.

This study found that both 5-ALA and Photofrin can effectively destroy human microvascular endothelial cells in vitro and cause tissue necrosis in vivo, with Photofrin showing greater efficacy at lower concentrations or power densities.

This case report highlights the risk of retinal injuries from laser epilation, emphasizing the importance of practitioner training and protective eyewear to prevent irreversible vision damage.

This review discusses various methods of light-based hair removal and reports no new clinical results, highlighting advances in laser and intense pulsed light technologies used for targeting hair pigmentation.

This review discusses the application of low-level light therapy for hair loss treatment, particularly androgenetic alopecia, and reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest consideration of light source characteristics and potential pros and cons.

In this review, the authors discussed how men seek cosmetic procedures for distinct reasons compared to women, emphasizing the need for dermatologists to consider male-specific desires for discrete treatments with minimal downtime and differences in psychological motivations.

This study concluded that laser hair removal using Alexandrite laser emitting red and infrared light appears safe and does not significantly affect the disease activity of Systemic lupus erythematosus.

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's network meta-analysis reported that botulinum injection combined with red laser and topical minoxidil is most effective for increasing hair density in androgenetic alopecia when using low-level laser therapy.

This review of low-level laser therapy for patterned hair loss found that red-spectrum light may be effective for hair growth, but larger case-controlled studies are needed to further support this conclusion.

This review discusses the therapeutic use of photobiomodulation for various skin conditions, highlighting its efficacy in accelerating tissue repair, reducing inflammation, and treating pigmentary disorders and other skin diseases, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the effects of low-level laser therapy in various biological processes for wound healing and tissue repair and reports no new results.

This study found that low-level laser therapy may enhance wound healing and reduce pain, swelling, and inflammation by increasing mitochondrial activity and oxidative stress, leading to greater protein synthesis and cell proliferation.

This review discusses the effectiveness of non-thermal, non-ablative devices like light-emitting diodes in treating various skin and hair conditions but reports no new clinical findings.

This article contains the late-breaking abstracts from the 39th Annual Conference of the American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery and does not present new research results.

This review discusses various hair loss treatments, such as stem cell therapy, laser therapies, and mesotherapy, emphasizing their potential and limitations while highlighting the need for further research to address genetic factors in hair loss.

This review concludes that low-level laser therapy is the most supported physical treatment for androgenetic alopecia, but other therapies like nonablative laser treatments and combinations including PEMF may also be promising.

This study evaluated a novel hand-held low-level light therapy device for treating mild-to-moderate acne, finding it significantly reduced inflammatory lesions and moderate acne severity without severe adverse reactions, while also reducing Cutibacterium acnes viability in vitro.

This chapter discusses procedural therapies like platelet-rich plasma and low-level light therapy for androgenetic alopecia, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review suggests that dermatological cosmetic procedures can be safely performed on dark-complexioned skin with appropriate treatment adjustments, highlighting the need for careful consideration to prevent adverse effects.

This article reviews the versatile applications of red and infrared light therapy, reporting that these treatments can enhance skin health by modulating cellular processes such as RNA and protein synthesis, oxygen consumption, and reducing oxidative stress and inflammation.

This article reviews the effectiveness of laser technology and Eflornithine cream as modern methods for reducing unwanted hair growth and reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the applications and advantages of LED-based photobiomodulation therapy for dermatological and cosmetic purposes but highlights existing challenges and health concerns while exploring future perspectives.

This review found that many low-level light therapy studies report beneficial effects but often fail to provide adequate measurement details, affecting the reliability and repeatability of the research.

This study found that the Epilight multiple wavelength pulsed-intense light source was effective for long-lasting hair removal, particularly in individuals with dark hair and light skin.

This study observed that persistent urticaria is a rare side effect of laser epilation, potentially linked to a hypersensitivity reaction in patients with allergies.

This review discusses home-use laser and light skin devices for various dermatological purposes and reports no new clinical findings; the authors highlight the need for dermatologists to evaluate these devices' clinical value.

This study found that low-level laser therapy with an 830-nm wavelength most significantly stimulated hair growth in rats, compared to other wavelengths tested.

This review summarizes late-breaking abstracts from the American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery, 2018, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that in a rat model of alopecia, combining low-level laser therapy with Neoptide treatment resulted in better hair regrowth compared to either treatment used alone.
