This study found that scanning electron microscopy can identify four specific hair morphology patterns in alopecia areata patients, offering a less invasive diagnostic option compared to punch biopsy.

This article discusses methods for repairing undesirable aesthetic hairlines from prior hair transplants and reports no new findings.

This study found trichoscopy to be a highly sensitive, non-invasive method for diagnosing tinea capitis in children, which could be valuable in resource-limited settings lacking mycological culture facilities.

This review discusses the adverse effects on hair associated with targeted cancer therapies and reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes the need for comprehensive documentation of these effects.

In this case report, an adolescent girl with itchy alopecic patches showed hair regrowth and no new alopecia patches after 6 weeks of treatment, despite initial minimal improvement with oral doxycycline.

This study surveyed hairline preferences and found that the M-shaped contour was most preferred overall, with lower forehead heights favored by men and those without a history of hair transplantation.

In this case report, a 31-year-old man with frontal hairline recession saw a marked improvement in hair density and scalp appearance after undergoing six mesotherapy sessions alongside twice-daily application of 5% minoxidil, attributed to the treatment protocol combining nutrients, bioactives, and topical minoxidil.

This review proposes an anatomy-based framework for understanding recipient site scalp necrosis in hair transplantation, emphasizing regional vascular vulnerability and surgical factors, but does not provide new clinical results.

This report details a refined hair transplantation method called direct no-shave follicular unit excision (DNS FUE), which avoids donor-site shaving and minimizes follicular trauma while yielding high patient satisfaction.

This case report describes a unique instance of late-onset Björnstad syndrome in an 18-year-old female, mimicking androgenetic alopecia, and indicates potential improvement with JAK inhibitor baricitinib, highlighting the need for considering this syndrome in similar cases of patterned hair loss in young individuals.

This study found that ARHGEF3 is crucial for hair follicle development in mice, as its absence leads to defects in placode compaction and impaired follicle downgrowth, highlighting its role in regulating cell shape rearrangements during embryogenesis.

Vascular patterns in dermoscopy help tell apart malignant and benign skin tumors.

This study surveyed individuals seeking estrogen-based gender-affirming hormone therapy, revealing that improving life satisfaction and femininity are top treatment goals, and highlighting the need for trials aligned with community priorities.

This study reported three cases of tinea corporis caused by Microsporum canis in a household, linked to a domestic cat, where genetic analysis suggested a familial transmission route.

This study reported the case of a 30-year-old man with a bluish-grey scalp nodule that developed over a previously stable hairless plaque, revealing histopathological features consistent with epithelioid cell nests and spindle-shaped dermal melanocytes embedded in collagen.

In this study, researchers developed a microfluidics-based method to generate hair follicle germs on a large scale for potential hair regeneration therapies, demonstrating efficient hair follicle regeneration following transplantation into mice.

This study provided a dynamic 4D atlas showing the development process of mouse hair follicles through a telescope-like model, revealing new insights into the origin of hair follicle stem cells.

This study found that DermaCult™ Keratinocyte Expansion Medium allows for significantly extended growth of human epidermal keratinocytes while maintaining their differentiation potential.

This article reports an unprecedented case of trichofolliculoma in the gluteal area, previously unreported in English literature.

This study found that dermoscopy is effective for distinguishing Tinea Capitis from Alopecia Areata by identifying unique trichoscopic features specific to each condition.

In this study, liposome-encapsulated thioglycolic acid improved hair perming by enhancing the penetration of perm solutions, resulting in a stronger S-shaped wave and higher cysteine content compared to the control.

This study found that inserting follicular units in a specific direction during hair restoration surgery did not improve natural-looking outcomes, as hair could be styled freely with regular combing.

Various surgical methods for hair restoration, like scalp reconstruction and tissue expansion, have been developed, but follicular unit transplant remains the most common procedure for correcting pattern baldness.

Various techniques and tools for hair restoration were presented in 1998, including a mathematical model for donor area, use of lasers in surgery, methods for controlling grafted hair direction, and ways to increase graft yield. Satisfaction rates were around 39%, and studies showed trauma and dehydration can damage hair follicles.

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 in the Journal of Dermatologic Surgery and Oncology provides no abstract or new findings, thus detailing is unavailable.

This study found that the newly developed microarray patches for intradermal delivery of finasteride showed high drug content and significantly improved skin deposition compared to existing methods.

In this study, key histologic features such as mucinous perifollicular fibroplasia were identified to aid in the diagnosis of lichen planopilaris.

This study found that vertical sections of alopecia biopsy specimens had a higher concordance rate with the original combined diagnosis compared to transverse sections alone, although both methods have their pros and cons.

This study reviewed scalp biopsies from African-American patients, identifying distinct features and diagnostic clues for scarring alopecia types such as traction alopecia and central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia.
