Laser hair removal is the most requested cosmetic procedure and has become a scientifically-based treatment suitable for all skin types.

A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.

Metformin is effective for treating excessive hair growth in women with PCOS and may work better than the standard treatment in some ways.

Hair follicle stem cells use specific chromatin changes to control their growth and differentiation.

Opioid painkillers can cause many side effects, including breathing problems and addiction, but are generally considered safe when used properly.

Epigenetic changes control how adult stem cells work and can lead to diseases like cancer if they go wrong.

Oral antiandrogens effectively treat female hair loss, with better results in higher hair loss grades.

Some postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia stopped losing hair with finasteride treatment, hinting at a possible hormonal cause.

Minoxidil, finasteride, and low-level laser light therapy effectively treat hair loss.

The conclusion is that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires good teamwork between skin doctors and lab experts.

Lower doses of treatments for hirsutism and acne in PCOS are effective and cause fewer side effects.

Epidermal stem cells are diverse and vary in activity, playing key roles in skin maintenance and repair.

Scientists made working salivary glands in mice using bioengineered cells, which could help treat dry mouth.

HairMax LaserComb® effectively promotes hair growth and stops hair loss in males with androgenetic alopecia, with no serious side effects.

TGF-β is crucial for controlling stem cell behavior and changes in its signaling can lead to diseases like cancer.

Male pattern baldness involves genetics, hormones, and needs better treatments.

New research suggests that skin cell renewal may not require a special type of cell previously thought to be essential.

Alopecia areata causes hair loss, has no cure, and various treatments exist.

Some drugs can cause hair loss or increase hair growth, but these effects are usually reversible when the drug is stopped.

Understanding different types of skin cells, especially fibroblasts, can lead to better treatments for wound healing and less scarring.

Cathepsin L is essential for normal hair growth and development.

The WNT signaling pathway is important in many diseases and targeting it could offer new treatments.

Skin aging is due to impaired stem cell mobilization or fewer responsive stem cells.

Keratose, derived from human hair, is a non-toxic biomaterial good for tissue regeneration and integrates well with body tissues.

The drug IPI-926 is safe at 160 mg daily and may help treat certain tumors, especially basal cell carcinoma.

Inflammation may be linked to hair loss, and targeting specific enzymes could help treat it.

Mouse hair follicle cells briefly grow during the early hair growth phase, showing that these cells are important for starting the hair cycle.

Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.

Trichoscopy can diagnose female hair loss with high accuracy by looking for specific patterns in hair and scalp appearance.

Over one-third of women experience hair loss, with female-pattern hair loss being most common, and treatments include minoxidil and possibly hair transplantation.
