This report describes the use of compounded topical preparations to treat two severe psoriasis patients and calls for further studies on their regulation, protocol, and stability evaluation.

This study focused on developing a nanoemulsion-based gel for delivering minoxidil, aiming to enhance its contact time with the scalp and potentially improve skin absorption compared to conventional topical solutions.

This study highlights that homemade topical herbal preparations, although popular for their perceived safety, may lead to allergic reactions, notably with Mediterranean herbs, and advises cautious use, particularly for allergy-prone individuals.

This study reported that a 1% ivermectin topical cream for rosacea was stable over six months, showing no significant changes in key physical properties or microbial contamination, suggesting it may reduce chronic antibiotic use in rosacea treatment.

In this study, a novel topical bimatoprost formulation (BIM-TF#5) significantly enhanced hair regrowth and increased dermal drug deposition in both human skin models and an androgenic alopecia mouse model compared to previous preparations.

This study found that dutasteride-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers coated with a stearic acid-chitosan oligomer are stable, less cytotoxic, and suitable for topical delivery to promote hair growth.

This study evaluated four minoxidil gel formulations for alopecia treatment, finding similar drug release across membranes and stability over three months, with no skin irritation observed in mice.

In this study, lecithin-based microparticle formulations of minoxidil showed enhanced skin penetration and comparable hair growth effectiveness to commercial products in mice, while minimizing skin irritation often seen with standard minoxidil solutions.

In this study, the researchers developed and optimized a curcumin nanocrystal gel to enhance skin permeability, reporting improved dissolution properties and antiproliferative effects on cell lines, suggesting it as a promising topical delivery system.

This study found that higher concentrations of topical diphenylcyclopropenone, especially when prepared with acetone, showed better stability over 6 months compared to lower concentrations.

This study found that a cimetidine 10% cream with sodium lauryl sulphate significantly increased drug diffusion through mouse skin and showed promise in treating warts in a preliminary clinical trial.

This systematic review found that topical adenosine may increase hair thickness and density while reducing hair loss, but the strength of evidence is low due to issues with trial design and sample size.

This study concluded that clotrimazole, miconazole, and tolnaftate appeared safe in guinea pigs, whereas gentian violet showed potential for severe ototoxicity, and nystatin left a concerning residue.

The study explored niosome formulations containing minoxidil and tretinoin and found increased drug stability and controlled release, suggesting potential as an effective drug delivery system for treating hair loss.

This study reported that optimized transfersomes and their gel form significantly improved transdermal delivery and hair growth promotion of minoxidil in C57BL/6 mice compared to commercial formulations.

This study found that among the tested analogs, compound 4e was the most effective in inhibiting wax esters in vivo in the Golden Syrian hamster ear model.

This review discusses the chemical composition and traditional medicinal uses of Eruca sativa, particularly its potential applications in topical preparations for hair growth and treating skin infections, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, a standardized 7.5% herbal extract significantly increased hair growth in men with androgenetic alopecia compared to a placebo over a 48-week period.

This open-access journal publishes innovative research articles across various fields but reports no new clinical results in this summary.

This study found that nanostructured lipid carriers enhanced the skin penetration and retention of minoxidil compared to solid lipid nanoparticles, suggesting they could be a promising method for topical delivery.

This study found that a finasteride topical gel formulation using propylene glycol and Tween® 80 showed significantly enhanced permeation compared to a control formulation without these enhancers.

In this study involving male mice, Mangkokan leaf extract (Polyscias scutellaria) at a 7% concentration was found to heal incision wounds faster compared to 3% and 5% concentrations.

This study found that using monoolein cubic phase nanoparticles with an entrapped hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin/minoxidil complex increased minoxidil skin permeation, but minoxidil retention in the skin was higher with a traditional solution.

In a case-series study, researchers reported significant hair regrowth in Alopecia Areata patients after three months of treatment with a topical preparation called Freezia cream, which was developed by specialized medical professionals and approved by the Iraqi Ministry of Health.

Treat scalp and beard fungal infections early with oral antifungal medication and sometimes topical therapy, avoiding unnecessary allergy tests and surgery.

This review provides an overview of current hair restoration techniques used in facial plastic surgery, including medications, injections like platelet-rich plasma, light therapy, and follicular unit extraction. Results are not reported.

This review discusses the safety of dermatological medications used during pregnancy, highlighting that retinoids have strong teratogenic risks and should be used with caution; it reports no new clinical results.

In teens with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and obesity, issues related to metabolism, skin, and mental health are common, and a clinic with various specialists can provide care for most of these problems.

This study reported that a new extraction technique using cautery and forceps is a simple, effective treatment and diagnostic procedure for eruptive vellus hair cysts, with no recurrence after 4 months.

In this case report, a 2-month-old girl with tinea capitis showed significant improvement after treatment with oral griseofulvin and topical ketoconazole. The study emphasizes the importance of layered diagnostics and systemic therapy for effective management of this fungal scalp infection in infants.
