In this study, an innovative flap procedure was described that may effectively treat extensive frontal baldness through a 180° rotation of a midline occipital flap, aligning hairs naturally.

The woman's skin and hair symptoms were confirmed as frontal fibrosing alopecia, and while facial papules are common in such cases, there's no effective local treatment, but systemic treatments can help.

This case report describes a man with trichorrhexis nodosa of the beard, who experienced symptomatic improvement after being advised to shave and avoid brushing, confirming the diagnosis.

This case report details a 52-year-old man's successful hair regrowth following treatment with griseofulvin for Trichophyton tonsurans-induced scalp ringworm.

This article presents a dermatological case involving a 36-year-old woman with ambiguous alopecia, evaluated using videodermatoscopy, but it reports no new research findings or clinical outcomes.

This study describes Pseudopelade of Brocq as a rare and enigmatic scarring alopecia characterized by irregular hair loss patterns on the scalp, requiring exclusion of other conditions like lichen planopilaris and discoid lupus erythematosus for a specific diagnosis.

This article explains that proliferating trichilemmal tumors, originating in the hair follicle, can exhibit low-grade malignant potential, and recommends wide excision to minimize recurrence risk, but reports no new clinical findings.

This commentary discusses the ongoing debate about the advisability of initiating hair transplants in people with early-stage male or female pattern baldness and does not present new research findings.

This study concluded that horizontal sections of scalp biopsy specimens provide more diagnostic information for male pattern androgenetic alopecia than vertical sections and can predict hair regrowth potential following topical minoxidil therapy.

This study observed that while some progenitor cells were present in the partially bald areas of androgenic alopecia in Indian men, the completely bald areas lacked these cells, suggesting potential timing for therapeutic intervention targeting hair follicle stem cell activity.

Up to 50% of scalp hair can be lost before it appears thin, and treatment is only needed for hair loss caused by diseases or deficiencies.

This case study reports a 38-year-old epileptic man with tufted hair folliculitis that persisted despite various antibiotic treatments, showing transient improvement followed by recurrence.

This study found that in male androgenetic alopecia, the contrast enhanced phototrichogram technique was superior in detecting changes in hair density and thickness compared to other methods.

This study found that increased expression of type 2 TGF-β and type II receptor was observed in the bald vertex area of hair follicles from androgenetic alopecia patients, suggesting a role in catagen induction.

This case report describes the first observed instance of fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution in a child, suggesting the condition is not solely androgen dependent.

In this case report, a 23-year-old woman developed localized trichorrhexis nodosa after compulsively applying 3% minoxidil to her scalp for two months.

This study highlights the use of dermatoscopy as a valuable tool for diagnosing and monitoring alopecia areata, noting that specific hair shaft alterations such as exclamation-mark hairs and black dots are indicators of active disease, while vellus hairs signal early regrowth.

This review discusses the histopathology of male-pattern baldness and highlights ongoing disputes over several aspects, including sebaceous gland size and follicle loss, reporting no new clinical findings.

Early diagnosis and treatment can help manage fibrosing alopecia in older women.

This review discusses the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment strategies for Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia, emphasizing a multifactorial approach and reporting no new clinical results.

This case study describes a middle-aged woman diagnosed with a proliferating trichilemmal tumor on her scalp, emphasizing the importance of comprehensive diagnostic approaches and highlighting surgical excision as the primary treatment.

This article includes visual documentation of eyebrow morphology during a disease course, but reports no new research findings.

This article proposes a hypothesis for alopecia areata hair loss patterns and provides epidemiological evidence supporting distinct hair loss characteristics between general cases and those with androgenetic alopecia; it presents no new clinical results.

This case report documents a novel occurrence of bilateral trichomegaly with alopecia areata in a healthy 3-year-old girl, without known underlying health conditions or medication use.

Hair transplantation successfully treated hair loss in a patient with Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome.

This study describes a newly observed "inflammatory vellus involvement" pattern in early frontal fibrosing alopecia, which may lead to misdiagnosis due to the absence of typical histological features.

The case study reports a patient with acute telogen effluvium in the donor region post-hair transplant, highlighting trichoscopic findings that aid in diagnosis and reassuring the self-resolutive nature of this condition.

Follicular red dots can appear where alopecia areata and vitiligo overlap.

Lupus erythematosus panniculitis on the scalp can cause unique geometric hair loss patterns.

In this study, focal atrichia was associated with late-onset female pattern hair loss, providing a clinical clue to its diagnosis, particularly separating it from other hair disorders.
