This article reviews melasma in men, its causes, and treatment options, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this systematic review, researchers examined various treatments for axillary hyperpigmentation, finding that Q-switched Nd:YAG laser and intense pulsed light showed significant improvement with minimal adverse effects; desonide and Cyperus rotundus oil were also notably effective among topical treatments.

This review found that various dermatological procedures for Seborrheic Dermatitis, such as phototherapy and laser treatments, showed significant efficacy in small cohorts with high patient satisfaction, but highlighted the need for further research to standardize protocols and evaluate long-term outcomes.

This review details the advancements and benefits of fractional erbium:YAG resurfacing lasers for treating photoaging, acne scarring, and dyschromia, but it presents no new clinical results.

This overview highlights the effectiveness of fractional lasers, particularly fractional erbium:YAG, in treating various skin conditions with customizable settings and a short recovery time, while noting potential risks and the importance of tailored applications for different skin types.

This commentary discusses donor area alopecia resulting from follicular unit excision, noting that numerous small scars can lead to thinning in the donor area, and calls attention to this emerging issue.

This review summarizes late-breaking abstracts from the American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery, 2018, and reports no new clinical findings.

The treatments for fungal nail infection, hair loss in men, benign nail tumor, and chemotherapy-associated nail bed inflammation are effective and safe.

This paper suggests intralesional cidofovir as a potentially effective treatment for SCC with no systemic toxicity observed, but surgical excision remains the standard for its curative outcomes and thorough evaluation.

This study found that laser hair removal effectively reduces disease severity in hidradenitis suppurativa with minimal side effects, likely due to the destruction of hair follicle units.

This report discusses laser hair removal for acne keloidalis nuchae, noting generally favorable outcomes but variability in lesion responsiveness and a need for standardized assessment criteria; it reports no new results.

This article contains the late-breaking abstracts from the 39th Annual Conference of the American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery and does not present new research results.

Finasteride 1 mg/day effectively treats hair loss in men aged 18-41 and over 41; DEET lotion works better than herbal insect repellents; combined tattoo removal technique shows no extra benefits.

In this study involving rat vibrissa follicles, U. japonica extract was found to enhance hair growth by increasing dermal papilla cell proliferation and accelerating the anagen phase but did not inhibit 5α-reductase activity, which is linked to androgenetic alopecia.

This study found that Wheat Sprout MeOH extract increased cell proliferation in human hair dermal papilla cells through the activation of ERK and Akt signaling pathways.

This study found that the herbal product containing Rosa multiflora roots extract improved hair density and thickness and significantly promoted hair growth in both mice and human patients after 16 weeks of treatment.

This study investigated the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects of the plant extract BLH308 and its potential to reduce hair loss, showing significant antioxidant activity in vitro.

This study found that polysaccharide extracts from ginseng, green tea, shiitake, and aloe vera effectively protected human follicle dermal papilla and keratinocyte cells by promoting cell proliferation or inhibiting apoptosis, suggesting potential for these extracts as ingredients in cosmetics or pharmaceuticals to prevent hair loss.

In this study, autologous platelet-rich plasma improved skin wound healing in mice, associated with reduced inflammation and enhanced angiogenesis and re-epithelialization, but the underlying regulatory mechanism requires further investigation.

In this study of patients with androgenetic alopecia, botulinum toxin type A was found to significantly increase hair counts and improve hair density and coverage, with enhanced results observed when combined with oral finasteride, revealing a safe and effective treatment approach without adverse effects.

This research reported that a newly developed dually crosslinked gelatin-alginate-based hydrogel scaffold enhances mechanical strength, promotes corneal tissue regeneration, and reduces scarring in rabbit models, suggesting potential applications in corneal tissue engineering.

This study demonstrated that keratin K124 is specific to equine hoof lamellar tissue and established monoclonal antibodies that can specifically recognize K124 without cross-reacting with other tissues.

In this study, dexpanthenol exhibited antiepileptic and antidepressant-like effects in mice without impacting their motor coordination.

This article reviews various topics including medically important plants in dermatology, supporting medicinal herbs for primary dysmenorrhea, and several drug delivery systems, without providing new clinical findings.

This study reviewed cases of ocular adverse events linked to minoxidil use, finding central serous chorioretinopathy as the most common issue, with symptoms improving after discontinuation in many cases, yet causality remains uncertain.

This study developed consensus guidelines for the use of low-dose oral and topical minoxidil in male and female pattern hair loss, recommending specific doses, monitoring procedures, and timing of application around hair transplant surgeries.

This study developed expert consensus guidelines on using low-dose oral and topical minoxidil for pattern hair loss around hair transplant surgery, recommending specific doses, monitoring practices, and timing of use for both male and female patients.

This study established consensus-based guidelines for using low-dose oral and topical minoxidil in managing pattern hair loss for patients undergoing hair transplant surgery, recommending specific dosages, monitoring procedures, and timing for initiation post-surgery.

This study found that glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist therapy was independently associated with an increased incidence of non-scarring hair loss, including telogen effluvium and androgenic alopecia, in adults but not alopecia areata.
