July 2011 in “Journal of the Dermatology Nurses’ Association” Antibiotic ointment and petrolatum ointment heal wounds similarly; iron deficiency isn't linked to certain hair loss in women; griseofulvin and terbinafine are equally effective for fungal scalp infections but work better on different types.
February 2024 in “Bioengineering” The hydrogel made of chitosan, HPMC, and insulin speeds up wound healing and could be a new dressing, especially for diabetics.
September 2007 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” ANp63 is crucial for skin integrity, new filaggrin gene mutations link to eczema, hair can regrow from non-stem cells, sunburns are increasing, and glucocorticoids help treat skin allergies by affecting immune cells.
January 2023 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences”
79 citations,
October 2015 in “Journal of Dermatological Treatment” Platelet-rich plasma may have some benefits in dermatology, but there's not enough evidence to widely recommend its use.
165 citations,
September 2003 in “Toxicology and applied pharmacology” Blocking COX, especially COX-2, in the skin can reduce inflammation and pain and may help prevent skin cancer.
44 citations,
October 2011 in “Gynecological Endocrinology” Menopause significantly reduces skin collagen, leading to thinner, less elastic skin, and hormone replacement may help but requires careful consideration.
19 citations,
August 2019 in “Seminars in Plastic Surgery” Platelet-rich plasma is beneficial in various plastic surgery applications, but more research is needed to standardize its use.
14 citations,
May 2021 in “Marine Drugs” PDRN, derived from salmon sperm, shows promise in healing wounds, reducing inflammation, and regenerating tissues, but more research is needed to understand its mechanisms and improve its use.
1 citations,
July 2020 in “Dermatology” Photobiomodulation helps reduce pain, lessen inflammation, heal wounds, and can be used in skin treatments. It also boosts hair growth in women with hair loss and may help fight microbes and prevent respiratory issues in COVID-19.

36 citations,
January 2018 in “Burns & Trauma” NSAIDs may not affect soft tissue healing but should be used carefully for bone fractures and more research is needed to understand sex differences in response.
15 citations,
May 2015 in “Photomedicine and Laser Surgery” Low-Level Laser Therapy may help with flap survival and burn scar healing, but not with venous ulcers or hair loss, and more research is needed.
