This study found that skin computed tomography may effectively identify epidermoid cysts by revealing features consistent with histopathology, potentially serving as a non-invasive diagnostic alternative to biopsies.

This report describes common skin CT features of rosacea identified using a reflective confocal microscope, facilitating more objective diagnosis but highlights the need for further clinical exploration.

This study found that a combination of dermatoscopy and reflectance confocal microscopy assists in accurately diagnosing pigmented prurigo, which is often misdiagnosed due to its varied clinical manifestations.

In this study, a cosmetic product with nano encapsulated cysteamine plus sunscreen significantly improved melasma symptoms and quality of life in adult women over 84 days, compared to sunscreen alone, without any medically relevant intolerance.

This study found that the yellow dot pattern observed in dermoscopy of alopecia areata corresponds to inefficient follicular structures containing hair remnants, as corroborated by reflectance confocal microscopy and pathological findings.

Reflectance confocal microscopy helped diagnose and manage a woman's hair loss without needing a biopsy.

Reflectance confocal microscopy can tell apart white dots on the scalp as either sweat gland ducts or hair follicle openings.

This study suggests that RCM may be a promising non-invasive diagnostic tool for alopecia areata incognita, showing substantial agreement with histopathology while noting some discrepancies.

This study found that in vivo confocal scanning laser microscopy accurately quantifies neogenic hair follicles in mice, producing results similar to histology while avoiding fixation artifacts.

This study found that nano-sized lipid particles improved the skin accumulation and retention of dexamethasone compared to a base cream, suggesting potential benefits for inflammatory skin disease treatment.

This review outlines the practical use of reflectance confocal microscopy in dermatology, detailing its applications and considerations for diagnosing various skin conditions, but reports no new findings.

This study highlights confocal microscopy as a promising, minimally invasive tool for assessing hair morphology and internal structures, making it valuable for cosmetic hair assessments.

This study found that combining dermoscopy with reflectance confocal microscopy is more sensitive and specific than using either method alone for assessing vitiligo disease activity and treatment response. Additionally, specific characteristics observed via these techniques correlated with either good or poor treatment outcomes.

This study found that both reflectance confocal microscopy and optical coherence tomography can visualize detailed hair follicle abnormalities in various skin disorders, but larger, higher-quality studies are needed for clinical implementation.

Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM) is a useful tool for studying how drugs interact with skin and diagnosing skin disorders, despite some limitations.

This review discusses the strong correlation between reflectance confocal microscopy images and horizontal histopathology in diagnosing skin tumors, highlighting the reliability of this non-invasive technique; no new clinical results are reported.

In this study, R-CSLM showed promise in evaluating hair shaft diseases by providing high-quality images of hair structures, although further development is necessary for follicle and perifollicular area analysis.

This review discusses various non-invasive methods for diagnosing alopecia areata, highlighting that trichoscopy signs like short vellus hairs and yellow dots are sensitive indicators of the condition, while advanced imaging techniques provide valuable information on hair follicle status and scalp inflammation.

This review updates on various methods for hair and scalp examination, encompassing non-invasive, semi-invasive, and invasive techniques, and reports no new results.

This study found that keratin derivatives with functionalized thiol groups improved binding to both natural and bleached hair fibers, suggesting a promising strategy for enhancing keratin's durability in hair repair.

This article presents a comprehensive overview of hair microscopy techniques and their diagnostic potential for systemic and cutaneous disorders, emphasizing its usefulness in resource-limited settings and highlighting the underutilization of this non-invasive method due to lack of awareness.

This review outlines various clinical methods for assessing ageing skin and discusses their application in supporting the efficacy claims of anti-ageing treatments, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that vitamin D-upregulated protein 1 (VDUP1) might play a unique role in regulating the differentiation of epidermal cells.

This study found that transethosomal gel loaded with propranolol hydrochloride prolonged drug release and increased peak plasma concentration compared to an oral tablet, suggesting a promising alternative for delivery.

This paper reviews various techniques for measuring the physical and mechanical properties of human hair fibers, emphasizing their importance in developing effective cosmetic products.

This study found that adapalene-loaded nanospheres in a hyaluronic acid gel enhanced skin penetration and were nonirritant, making them potentially suitable for treating acne on oily skin.
