This study reports that Mohs micrographic surgery resulted in no recurrences of pilomatrix carcinoma, compared to a 34.5% recurrence rate with traditional surgical excision.

In this guide, the authors describe a scalp incision technique that minimizes damage to hair follicles and results in barely noticeable scars in hair-bearing areas.

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.

This article reviews the evolution of syndactyly repair techniques, highlighting a shift towards graftless approaches to avoid complications associated with skin grafts, but reports no new clinical outcomes.

This article reviews common dermatologic procedures, focusing on skin biopsy techniques, with no new clinical results reported.

This article discusses a combined strip and follicular unit extraction method along with an intraoperative calculation model to reduce over-extraction and wastage in hair transplantation and reports no new clinical results.

This article explains that proliferating trichilemmal tumors, originating in the hair follicle, can exhibit low-grade malignant potential, and recommends wide excision to minimize recurrence risk, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers reported that a new skin-responsive FU excision device consistently succeeded in all patients of African descent, showing a mean graft transection rate of less than 10%, with skin thickness and firmness identified as major factors affecting graft attrition rate.

Hair transplantation can improve scars after removing a rare skin cancer.

This study observed that using ex vivo gene therapy to modify skin cells in a pre-graft model improved dermal-epidermal junction adhesion strength and maintained collagen production over time, suggesting a potential treatment approach for recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa skin wounds.

This abstract reviews eyebrow transplantation techniques, highlighting that follicular unit extraction prevents scarring at the donor site, unlike strip harvesting, and reports no new clinical results.

This study identified a novel pathogenic splice-site variant of the LAMB3 gene in patients with junctional epidermolysis bullosa, highlighting the importance of gene sequencing for diagnosis.

This study reports that using laser microdissection to isolate telogen hair follicles significantly improves DNA extraction efficiency for STR typing, reducing contamination from keratin.

This article discusses ideal techniques for harvesting donor tissue in hair restoration surgery but reports no new clinical results.

New techniques in hair restoration surgery can lead to better hair alignment.

In this study, a new technique using a punch-out method followed by resuturing was shown to improve the appearance of widened scars from previous hair transplant procedures in 58 patients, with the advantages of being quick and not requiring additional follicular units.

This study found that selectively inactivating ribonucleotide excision repair in mouse epidermis leads to DNA damage, keratinocyte intraepithelial neoplasia, and squamous cell carcinoma, indicating a potential tumor-promoting mechanism related to compromised genome maintenance.

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 article reports that while surgical excision is often the best treatment for SCC, intralesional cidofovir also showed success without systemic toxicity in the case discussed.

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 case report describes how a combined nude and hair-bearing full-thickness skin graft was used after micrographic surgery to achieve a cosmetically satisfactory reconstruction of a large eyebrow defect.

This article describes a graft preparation technique for hair restoration using a donor strip, but it does not present new clinical findings.

This case study of a patient with dissecting cellulitis of the scalp found that multiple medications, including isotretinoin, achieved only modest improvement, and symptoms returned after treatments were stopped.

This overview describes the Dermatologic Surgery journal, which publishes extensive peer-reviewed content on skin surgery, but presents no new research findings.

In this study, researchers found that selectively disabling ribonucleotide excision repair in mouse epidermis caused DNA damage, skin inflammation, and led to skin cancer, suggesting a potential role for this repair mechanism in tumorigenesis.

This study discusses the advantages and disadvantages of two hair graft harvesting methods, strip follicular unit transplantation and follicular unit excision, highlighting their implications for creating effective surgical plans for hair restoration without providing specific new results.

This study found that the SAFE System may improve follicular unit extraction by reducing follicle transection rates and broadening patient eligibility, with only minor adverse reactions reported.

This review details the Follicular Unit Extraction technique for hair restoration, highlighting its advantages over traditional strip surgery, but includes no new clinical findings.

Double trichophytic closure effectively treats thin scalp scars and reduces patient costs.

This article outlines the evolving landscape of surgical dermatology and highlights the promising future as new techniques continue to emerge, but it presents no new research results.
