In this study, cross-sex hormone therapy affected hair growth patterns differently, with estrogen reducing hair growth in male-to-female transsexuals and testosterone increasing it in female-to-male transsexuals; however, male typical hair diameters were not fully reached in the latter group after 12 months.

The T-zone on the face has more androgen receptors and produces more oil than the U-zone.

This review discusses how sex hormone levels and local steroid synthesis influence gender differences in aging skin, reporting no new clinical results.

In this study, O. forskahlii seed oil was found to promote hair growth in rats and exhibit anti-aging effects on human skin cells by enhancing fibroblast proliferation and inhibiting inflammation and enzyme activity, indicating potential for cosmetic use.

This study explored microemulsion formulations for delivering finasteride through the skin, finding that higher water concentrations increased permeation, which may inform optimal transdermal delivery for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that 5alpha-reductase type 1 localizes specifically to sebaceous glands in both normal and acne follicles, suggesting its role in sebum regulation.

This review discusses the role of defensin peptides in stem cell activation for potential skin rejuvenation therapies and reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing the need for further studies.

This article reviews the effects of combined oral contraceptives on skin conditions and suggests prescribing guidelines for women with acne, as it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the steroidogenic properties of human skin and suggests that impaired steroidogenesis may be linked to conditions like acne, rosacea, atopic dermatitis, and androgenic alopecia, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the mechanisms of skin barrier impairment in acne vulgaris and suggests strategies for its repair but reports no new clinical results.

This abstract reviews testosterone supplementation with and without a dual 5α-reductase inhibitor on fat-free mass in men with suppressed testosterone production and reports no new research findings.

This article explains the structure and multifunctional roles of the human skin, including its protective, regulatory, and sensory functions, but does not report new research findings.

This chapter discusses the structure and function of the skin, detailing its protective roles and the layers that comprise it, but reports no new research findings.

This review indicates that estrogen loss during menopause significantly impacts skin health, while estrogen treatment may increase skin collagen, thickness, and elasticity, though effects on other skin characteristics are inconsistent.

This review discusses the influence of oestrogens on various skin components and highlights their modulatory roles and receptor pathways, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review examines the effects of menopause on skin aging and suggests hormone replacement therapy may improve some symptoms, without providing new clinical findings.

In this 2-year prospective study, researchers observed that weight loss through bariatric surgery in patients with morbid obesity led to improvements in various skin conditions, although it also resulted in hair loss (telogen effluvium) for over half of the participants.

In this study, bariatric surgery in patients with morbid obesity improved various skin conditions, although acute telogen effluvium was common, with notable reductions in facial sebum and skin elasticity changes.

This study found that virgin coconut oil improved skin inflammation and symptoms of seborrheic dermatitis in rats, particularly at a dose of 10 mg/kg, by reversing alterations in antioxidant and inflammatory markers.

This study found that overexpression of sPLA2-X in mice was associated with alopecia and hair follicle abnormalities, highlighting its potential role in hair follicle homeostasis.

In this study, gender-affirming hormonal treatment was associated with increased hair growth, acne, and alopecia prevalence in transgender individuals assigned female at birth, while opposite dermatological changes were observed in those assigned male at birth.

Most white Spanish women have a widow's peak, and their hairline measurements could help in hair restoration surgery.

Acne involves increased lipid production and inflammation, affecting skin cell behavior and treatment resistance.

In this study, treatment with Green tea was found to significantly increase cholesterol and triglyceride levels in sebocyte cells in a dose-dependent manner.

This review highlights the broad range of adverse effects associated with isotretinoin in acne treatment and examines strategies such as dietary supplementation and adjusted dosing protocols to enhance patient tolerability while maintaining efficacy.

This review identifies excessive sebum, decreased elasticity, and increased hair follicle volume as key factors contributing to enlarged skin pores, emphasizing the need for individualized treatment based on underlying causes.

This review discusses isotretinoin's effectiveness against severe acne vulgaris and its associated side effects, including teratogenicity and hair loss, but it reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the mechanisms and grading challenges of acne vulgaris, highlighting the need for better treatment strategies and reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses the potential of P. polyphylla saponins to treat acne through antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and antioxidant effects, noting that acne's complex pathogenesis makes this line of research promising for future studies.
