In this systematic review, oral minoxidil was found to be a safe and effective treatment for androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata, with additional benefits for female pattern hair loss and other types of alopecia, although common side effects included hypertrichosis and postural hypotension.

This study reported that topical calcipotriol did not reduce hypertrophic scar formation in women post reduction mammoplasty, but found a strong association between activated keratinocytes and scar formation.

This review highlights recent advancements in using nanotechnology for scar prevention and treatment, emphasizing the unique properties of nanomaterials in drug delivery and the challenges that remain in maximizing their potential for effective scar interventions.

Turning scar-forming cells into fat cells can reduce scarring.

This review discusses treatment strategies for managing scarring based on severity using volume, surface, and movement interventions, but does not present new experimental results.

This review discusses the wound healing process and the factors contributing to abnormal scarring after thermal injuries, but it reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses various methods for minimizing and repairing strip scars from follicular unit hair transplants but reports no new clinical results.

The study reported that using polyamide hair fiber implants may be an effective adjunctive treatment for scalp scars, with most patients experiencing no complications.

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.

In this reported case of SAPHO syndrome, methotrexate treatment led to significant clinical improvement after other treatments for skin lesions and arthritis proved less effective.

This review compares the CO2 and Er:YAG laser treatments for acne scars, noting that while CO2 lasers offer deeper tissue penetration for severe scars, Er:YAG lasers pose a lower risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and recommends personalizing treatments and considering combination therapies.

This study found that transtherapy, a treatment using Korean medicine, significantly improved acne scars, reducing the scarring grade from an average of 3.5 to 1.5 in moderate and severe cases.

This study observed that treating acne scars with fractional ablative laser concurrently with isotretinoin improved outcomes more effectively compared to applying the laser 6 months after isotretinoin treatment ended, as measured by the Quantitative Global Acne Scarring Grading System.

This study found that combining ultrapulsed fractional CO2 laser with bovine basic fibroblast growth factor significantly improved acne scars more effectively and safely compared to laser therapy alone.

This article discusses various techniques to achieve a cosmetically attractive single donor scar in hair restoration surgery, reporting no new clinical findings.

This article discusses a strip donor harvesting technique for hair transplantation and reports no clinical results; the author highlights the importance of anatomical knowledge for successful scar excision.

The researchers concluded that hairless dogs can serve as an effective model for studying hypertrophic scarring due to their development of scars with morphological similarities to human hypertrophic scars.

This review explores regenerative treatment options for non-scarring alopecia, with a focus on the potential of mesenchymal stem cells for hair regrowth, but it reports no new clinical results.

This case report highlights keloid formation as a rare complication at the donor site after follicular unit extraction hair transplantation, suggesting practitioners should be aware of procedure-associated risks.

This study found that combining platelet-rich plasma with microneedling or fractional CO2 laser therapy was more effective in treating postacne atrophic scars than using these therapies alone, also boosting patient satisfaction.

This paper describes a method for treating facial pitted scars using donor grafts and reports expected outcomes and potential complications, without providing new clinical results.

Low-dose oral minoxidil does not cause tachycardia in hair loss patients.

In this Mendelian randomization study, shortened leukocyte telomere length was associated with an increased risk of androgenetic alopecia, but no causal relationship was found with alopecia areata.

This study observed an association between body iron levels and non-scarring diffuse hair loss in non-menopausal women.

This article discusses short scar facelift techniques for facial rejuvenation without reporting new clinical results, highlighting their appeal due to reduced morbidity, shorter scars, and less downtime.

Burn scars form abnormally due to changes in wound healing, and more research is needed to improve treatments.

This review article proposes a possible skin-gut-fibrosis axis, suggesting that gut microbial metabolites may influence the development of keloids and hypertrophic scars by affecting immune responses and fibrotic signaling pathways, although direct evidence in skin fibrosis remains limited.

Salivary vitamin D and IL-6 could help diagnose and manage non-scarring alopecia.

This study suggests that wearing the hijab may lead to an earlier onset of alopecia in women, with vitamin D deficiency and seborrheic dermatitis contributing to the risk of developing telogen effluvium.

This case study reported that systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) can initially present as patchy non-scarring alopecia, potentially misdiagnosed as alopecia areata, highlighting the importance of thorough examination.
