This review explores new theories, diagnostic tools, and management strategies for primary cicatricial alopecia but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses hair transplantation advances for female alopecia, offering a classification system and various techniques, while emphasizing preoperative evaluation and addressing the psychological impact and expectations of hair restoration in women.

This article discusses treatment approaches for a 33-year-old man with progressive hair loss, including the potential use of scalp reduction surgery, and reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses mathematical correlations in hair restoration surgery but reports no new research findings.

In this case report, the authors found that hair transplantation on a free microvascular flap may be a viable and effective option for achieving good aesthetic outcomes when treating residual alopecia following reconstruction of large scalp defects.

This case report describes a serious complication of follicular unit extraction, where donor-site necrosis led to cicatricial alopecia, but was successfully treated with two-stage surgery using tissue expanders.

This study describes three female cases of androgen-dependent diseases in myotonic dystrophy, suggesting that peripheral androgen response, rather than serum levels, may drive such conditions.

This study found that electrospun short fibrous sponges effectively mimic the 3D extracellular matrix, promoting tissue regeneration, angiogenesis, and wound healing in diabetic rats better than 2D fiber membranes.

This study reported that both primary and secondary cutaneous follicle center lymphomas can present with atypical scalp or forehead lesions, leading to potential misdiagnosis as other skin conditions.

This review discusses the potential effectiveness of cell therapy for hair loss, highlighting promising early findings but emphasizing that more research is needed to explore specific therapies like autologous fat grafting and mesenchymal stem cells.

This case report describes a patient with non-small cell lung cancer who experienced trichomegaly (excessive eyelash growth) as a side effect of erlotinib treatment without developing typical skin rash.

This review provides a clinical guide for safely using dermo-aesthetic treatments to improve the quality of life for oncology patients dealing with treatment-related side effects, emphasizing the importance of consulting with an oncologist before undergoing such procedures.

This study of photobiomodulation therapy devices for androgenetic alopecia found variable improvements in hair grade across different skin types and devices, suggesting a need for larger, more comprehensive trials.

This review discusses novel treatments for androgenetic alopecia, including therapies like platelet-rich plasma and adipose-derived stem cells, and reports no new clinical results.

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

This review discusses central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia and emphasizes the need for more research to understand and manage the disease, while also suggesting initiatives like educating hairstylists for early detection.

This review outlines the current state and future prospects of using layer-by-layer self-assembly for cell encapsulation in biomedical applications, such as cell-based biosensors, transplantation, and tissue engineering, while also discussing its limitations and potential advancements.

The researchers developed a new follicular unit extraction system with adjustable needle lengths and precise rotation speed, which they report as being superior to existing systems for non-incisional hair transplants.

This article discusses treatment approaches for female pattern hair loss and concludes that available medical treatments are effective in reversing or stabilizing the condition in most cases of mild-to-moderate severity.

This case report describes a successful hair transplant surgery using the follicular unit extraction method to restore a bald area following scalp tumor resection and skin grafting, highlighting its utility in such complex cases.

This study reported that using human follicle stem cells isolated from hair bulge areas increased hair density by about 29% over baseline in patients with androgenetic alopecia, with significant improvements observed 23 weeks after the last treatment.

This article reviews treatment options for male androgenetic alopecia, including minoxidil, 5 alpha reductase inhibitors, and hair transplantation, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this case report, a 21-year-old male was observed to have primary essential cutis verticis gyrata, a condition characterized by the excessive formation of scalp folds resembling cerebral gyri, without any additional comorbidities.

In this study, miniflap scalp reconstruction with a staged scalp-lifting procedure showed excellent flap viability, acceptable scarring, and customizable hair direction, offering a preferred option for hair relocation in selected cases.

This review explores fibroblast heterogeneity in the mammalian dermis and suggests potential therapeutic applications by targeting fibroblast subtypes, but reports no new experimental results.

This article reviews central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia in African-descent females, discussing possible causes, associated styling habits, and potential treatments, but reports no new clinical findings; the authors call for further research.

This review discusses the role of mechanical forces in skin homeostasis and disease development, including their impact on conditions like keloids, androgenetic alopecia, and acral melanoma, and reports no clinical results; the authors propose modifying these forces as a potential therapeutic strategy.

This review offers evidence-based recommendations for diagnosing and treating female pattern hair loss, emphasizing clinical assessment and starting treatment with minoxidil, while noting that measurement of certain hormones and vitamins is optional.

This study found that intermediate hair follicles are morphologically distinct from terminal follicles and offer a novel model for developing new alopecia therapies despite being technically more challenging to study.

The study suggests that a 3D culture system using the RAD16-I peptide scaffold can help restore the original phenotype of hair follicle dermal papilla cells and support their osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation.
