December 2004 in “Medicine” A thorough history and examination are crucial for diagnosing skin diseases, which affect up to a third of people. This includes details about skin lesions, medication, general health, lifestyle, family, and contacts, as well as examining the rash, hair, nails, and mucous membranes. Changes in hair and nails can also indicate other medical and skin disorders.
March 1997 in “The American Journal of Cosmetic Surgery” A new hair transplant method showed promising results and a study found how deep a CO₂ laser can penetrate skin.

December 2016 in “Paleontological Journal” Hair growth can be induced by transplanting certain cells, but these cells lose their properties during culturing. The best cell interaction happens in a liquid medium under gravity, and using collagen doesn't help. Future research could focus on using growth factors to stimulate these cells.
