This article presents the surgical technique of long hair follicular unit excision (FUE) in hair transplantation and reports procedural and outcome data for 134 patients, without evaluating clinical outcomes.

This study reported that a new extraction technique using cautery and forceps is a simple, effective treatment and diagnostic procedure for eruptive vellus hair cysts, with no recurrence after 4 months.

This article proposes two new categories of cicatricial alopecia—“unstable” and “stable”—and suggests surgical excision as preferred over hair transplantation, especially for unstable cases.

This study describes a new two-step method for effectively removing hair particles from split-thickness skin grafts from the scalp, potentially preventing foreign-body reactions at recipient sites.

This review discusses the choice between follicular unit transplantation (FUT) and follicular unit excision (FUE) in hair restoration surgery, highlighting their respective advantages and how improved techniques have increased FUE's popularity despite equivalent aesthetic results with FUT.

This study identified a mutation in the keratin 71 gene that causes curly hair in certain rats, advancing our understanding of hair formation.

CRISPR/Cas9 and prime editing can potentially fix skin disorder genes safely and effectively.

This review discusses current techniques for scalp reconstruction following oncologic surgery and reports no new clinical outcomes, emphasizing the importance of tailored approaches for satisfactory closure.

The researchers reported that using a skin-responsive FUE device in nonscalp hair transplantation significantly reduced graft transection rates compared to older methods, improving patient satisfaction and surgeon willingness.

This study presents a new surgical technique that frequently results in minimal scars visible to the naked eye, marking a significant improvement over traditional methods.

This article discusses two donor site reharvesting methods that may allow further hair restoration sessions and improve donor scar aesthetics but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that most completely excised basal cell carcinomas in the head and neck were nodular, with a 2.7% recurrence rate, particularly in median areas, likely due to anatomical and histopathological factors.

This retrospective study reported significant improvements in keloid scars among 60 patients treated with punch excision and superficial X-ray, with lower Vancouver Scar Scale and Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale scores a year post-treatment and no severe adverse reactions observed.

This study reported successful repigmentation of perioral vitiligo using upper hair follicle transplantation combined with a 308 nm excimer laser, without undesirable hair growth in the treated areas, offering a potential approach for treating vitiligo cases unresponsive to traditional melanocyte transplantation.

The exosome injections were from stem cells and plants, not umbilical cords.

This review discusses combining follicular unit excision (FUE) and linear strip excision (LSE) donor harvesting methods to optimize graft yield while minimizing donor depletion, but provides no new clinical results.

This article discusses the surgical technique of "deroofing" for hidradenitis suppurativa, highlighting its advantages over traditional methods but reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize the importance of dietary management as part of treatment.

This review discusses the authors' approach to reconstructing scalp and neurocranial defects and reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses scalp reduction as a technique in male pattern baldness, highlighting its potential to enhance hair transplantation outcomes, but reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that a new surgical technique resulted in minimal scars visible to the naked eye in most cases, suggesting a significant improvement over conventional closure techniques.

This review discusses wound healing options after skin excision and laser treatments for hidradenitis suppurativa and reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the establishment and global adoption of standardized terminology for follicular unit excision (FUE) by the ISHRS, which aids effective communication among hair restoration practitioners.

This study found that Fraser's Dolphin, a tight-skinned mammal, can regenerate complex skin architecture with minimal scarring after large full-thickness wounds, even in high-tension environments, offering insights into regenerative healing mechanisms typically obscured by fibrotic responses.

This article discusses the growing popularity of beard and moustache reconstruction techniques, emphasizing improved aesthetic outcomes with refined surgical methods, but reports no new clinical results.

This study showed that ultrapulse carbon dioxide laser ablation can precisely remove rabbit skin without scarring, facilitating normal skin and hair restoration within one month.

This study concluded that effective and safe alopecia reduction surgery is possible when specific surgical techniques are used, minimizing complications.

This commentary discusses the declining status of scalp reduction in hair restoration practice and reports no new clinical findings.

This study reports on an ongoing Phase I/IIa clinical trial of ex vivo gene therapy for treating severe Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa, involving six adult participants with COL7A1 mutations resulting in deficient type VII collagen production.

This article introduces a modified surgical scalpel designed to minimize side effects in hair transplantation, proposing it as an ideal tool for removing the donor area.
