This report describes successful scalp resurfacing using serial tissue expansion with a tissue expander in two patients with large lesions, suggesting this method can effectively treat extensive hairless scalp areas.

In this study, researchers observed that individuals with alopecia areata exhibited significant changes in scalp microbiota diversity and composition, which were linked to disease severity and inflammation markers, though it remains unclear if these microbial shifts are a cause or a result of hair loss.

This study found a perfect correlation between laser Doppler velocimetry measurements of scalp blood perfusion after minoxidil application and sulfotransferase enzyme activity in hair follicles, indicating a potential non-invasive test to predict minoxidil response in female pattern hair loss.

In this study, intradermal injections of extracellular vesicles over six months were reported to be safe and effective in improving hair growth among patients with pattern hair loss, with favorable response linked to specific patient factors and treatment volumes.

This study found that testosterone and 5α-dihydrotestosterone induced apoptosis in dermal papilla cells from nonbalding scalp regions, suggesting a high androgen stimulus can trigger cell death related to androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, applying FGF-2-containing dalteparin/protamine nanoparticles to the scalp was associated with a significant increase in hair diameter over six months among participants with thin hair.

This study suggests that the expression of the DP2 receptor is higher in balding scalp cells and that its knockdown could inhibit the transition to the catagen phase in cultured human hair follicles, potentially counteracting hair growth inhibition associated with male pattern baldness.

In this study, autologous platelet concentrates and topical steroids similarly reduced lesion size, Thongprasom scale, and pain in oral lichen planus patients, suggesting autologous platelet concentrates as a potential alternative treatment.

The chemical peel improved the appearance of hand spots safely and effectively.

This study found that brain-derived nerve factor protein expression was significantly increased in balding scalp samples from men with androgenetic alopecia, suggesting it may play a role in hair follicle regulation.

The study suggests that CO₂ laser creates hair transplant channels with significantly less lateral thermal damage than Ho:YAG laser in the human scalp.

This study found that combining LED yellow light with an engineered strain expressing CXCL12 improved wound healing and reduced inflammation in a mouse model of scald wounds.

This review considers oxidative stress effects on hair aging and emphasizes the need for dermatologists to recognize and treat factors affecting scalp and hair health, but it provides no new clinical findings.

In this study, neonatal murine skin-derived cells transplanted using a mini-chamber method successfully produced robust and normal hair, contrasting with human scalp follicles which did not achieve follicle reconstruction.

Silymarin improves hair follicle health better than vitamin C by boosting cell growth and reducing oxidative stress.

Hair gels may cause split ends in children.

This study developed a new neural network model (AA-GAN-AB-MTEDeep) to enhance Alopecia Areata classification using synthetic scalp images, achieving an accuracy of 96.94%.

This report describes two scalp lichen simplex chronicus cases with hair loss and intense itching, noting unique dermoscopic and histopathological features.

In this study, researchers aimed to develop a herbal shampoo by replacing harmful synthetic ingredients with natural alternatives to improve safety and effectiveness, targeting issues like hair loss and scalp irritation often associated with traditional shampoos.

This study reports that while DCP had similar treatment efficacy in propylene glycol and isopropanol for alopecia areata, the formulation in isopropanol was better tolerated.

In this study involving women undergoing taxane-based chemotherapy, a twice-daily topical application of BPM31543 was well-tolerated and showed potential in reducing severe hair loss, prompting further investigation at higher doses.

This article discusses the development of a standardized assessment scale for hair transplant outcomes, emphasizing multiple parameters that contribute to an aesthetically pleasing result and reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggests that oxidative stress may contribute to androgenetic alopecia by inducing premature senescence and secretion of hair growth inhibitors in dermal papilla cells from balding scalp.

Hair transplant complications were likely due to deep graft placement and rough handling.

The document recommends careful planning and techniques for successful punch hair grafting in hair restoration.

This case report highlights a rare occurrence of squamous cell carcinoma developing at the site of synthetic hair implantation many years later, emphasizing the need for vigilance when examining chronic scalp lesions in patients with such procedures.

This study found that using platelet-rich plasma alongside minoxidil and finasteride/spironolactone during hair transplant surgery for androgenetic alopecia improved follicle survival, hair growth rates, and hair strength.

This study reviewed the use of microinfusion of microparticles (MMP®) with methotrexate for treating alopecia frontal fibrosante and found it reduced symptoms associated with the condition and improved specific scalp measurements, showing that the technique is safe and well-tolerated.

This chapter details the causes and diagnostic process of pediatric alopecia, including trichoscopic findings, but reports no new clinical results.

Proteins like aPKC and PDGF-AA, substances like adenosine and ATP, and adipose-derived stem cells all play important roles in hair growth and health, and could potentially be used to treat hair loss and skin conditions.
