This review discusses plant-based alternatives to retinoids for dermal antiaging and hair health, highlighting roles for cytokinins and phytoestrogens and reports no new results.

This study suggests that 2% minoxidil and Kerium may promote hair regrowth in rats, while Aminexil showed the least effect among tested treatments; human-use products varied in efficacy in this animal model.

The authors of this study aim to evaluate the strategies for using topical products in treating androgenetic alopecia, highlighting topical applications as potentially more effective and convenient compared to oral medications, which often suffer from poor patient adherence.

In this review, researchers discussed recent advances in nanotechnology for topical skin applications, highlighting how nanocarriers enhance skin penetration and targeting in treatments for diseases like melanoma and psoriasis, while acknowledging that the penetration mechanisms and health impacts of nanoparticles remain not fully understood.

The product effectively improves hair volume in aging individuals.

Diphenyl ethers can potentially reduce excess oil production when applied on the skin, helping treat conditions like acne.

This study identified pantolactam based compounds as effective topical antagonists of the androgen receptor, reducing sebum components in a hamster model.

This review discusses strategies for developing semi-solid topical generic products to match the quality of reference-listed drugs, using concepts like quality by design and reverse-engineering, but reports no new results.

This study found that an anhydrous gel formulation containing sertaconazole nitrate effectively penetrated the stratum corneum for treating fungal infections without causing irritation.

This study investigated the secretome of adipose mesenchymal stem cells and fibroblasts used in skin care products, finding 16 therapeutic pathways involving numerous signaling mechanisms, which may offer skin benefits through anti-inflammatory and regenerative effects.

This review discusses current topical treatments, natural products, and complementary therapies for androgenetic alopecia, but it reports no new clinical results.

The effectiveness of ingredients in anti-hair loss products varies, and clinical trials are crucial to determine their success.

This study introduced a novel nonsteroidal androgen receptor antagonist that effectively controls sebum production in the golden Syrian hamster ear model through targeted follicular delivery.

This study found that localized skin calcification could be induced in adult rats through dihydrotachysterol treatment combined with topical trauma, offering an experimental model for calcifying scleroderma.

In this study, 2% minoxidil applied topically did not alter scalp sebum levels, despite promoting hair growth in some participants.

This abstract does not provide study results but outlines that acne is influenced by factors like androgens, sebum production, abnormal keratinization, and inflammatory reactions involving lymphocytes, macrophages, and neutrophils.

This study reports that 4-(alkylthio)- and 4-(arylthio)-benzonitriles showed moderate sebum reduction as androgen receptor antagonists when applied topically in a validated animal model.

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.
