research Novel insights into hair structure and the effects of chemical stressors on hair and skin using label-free advanced light microscopy

January 2017 in “Durham e-Theses (Durham University)”

This study developed new label-free imaging methods to analyze human hair, identifying distinct chemical environments within cuticle layers and changes in hair structure caused by depilatories, while showing that the treatments tested did not significantly affect skin cell differentiation or proliferation.

research Antiglicants

January 2017 in “Clinical approaches and procedures in cosmetic dermatology”

This review explores the role of advanced glycation end products in skin aging and their interaction with oxidative stress, but reports no new clinical findings.

research Metabolic syndrome and the skin: a more than superficial association. Reviewing the association between skin diseases and metabolic syndrome and a clinical decision algorithm for high risk patients

52 citations , February 2018 in “Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome”

This review discusses the association between various skin conditions and metabolic syndrome, reporting no new clinical results but suggesting a potential reciprocal relationship that warrants further investigation.

research Aging Skin: A Window to the Body

1 citations , April 2016 in “CRC Press eBooks”

Skin aging reflects overall body aging and can indicate internal health conditions.

research Skin aging: mechanisms, evaluation, and rejuvenation

May 2026 in “The EMBO Journal”

This study explores the complex mechanisms of skin aging, including cellular senescence and disrupted communication, and highlights rejuvenation strategies like gene expression rewiring and microbiome modulation, offering potential frameworks for regenerative therapies and precise interventions in skin and systemic aging.

community Skin Aging and Minox

5 upvotes 11 years ago

The conversation is about concerns over skin aging from using minoxidil for hair loss, with the user planning to use a minimal amount to avoid side effects. Other users suggest that overuse may cause temporary skin dryness but not actual aging, and emphasize proper application.

community Scalp Skin Barrier Health and Hair Follicle Cycling: A Potential Overlooked Connection

in Technology 4 months ago

The conversation discusses the importance of scalp skin barrier health in hair follicle cycling, suggesting treatments like ceramides or niacinamide to support hair growth. It also mentions the use of finasteride for hair loss.

community Minoxidil Skin Delivery from Nanoemulsion Formulations Containing Eucalyptol or Oleic Acid: Enhanced Diffusivity and Follicular Targeting

4 upvotes 1 year ago

Minoxidil can be effectively delivered through nanoemulsions containing eucalyptol or oleic acid, enhancing its diffusivity and targeting hair follicles. This contradicts the advice against mixing minoxidil with oils in topical formulations.

community Is there any good collagen to use for skin, nails, hair, and joints?

2 upvotes 2 months ago

Collagen supplements for improving skin, hair, nails, and joints. Recommendations include standard collagen peptide powder and Live Conscious collagen peptide, though some users doubt their effectiveness.

community Will minoxidil cause your skin to age from the collagen inhibition?

2 upvotes 7 months ago

Minoxidil is unlikely to cause skin aging at typical doses, and concerns about collagen inhibition are mostly unfounded. Users suggest using sunscreen and tretinoin for skin health, and some combine minoxidil with finasteride for hair maintenance.

learn Melatonin

Can melatonin cause side effects on the skin or hair? No study links melatonin to hair loss; reports are anecdotal. Some users report scalp dryness or irritation from topical products, and a safety review lists mainly mild side effects such as sleepiness and headache.

learn Follistatin

Can follistatin be applied to the skin, and does any form of it treat hair loss? No study shows that follistatin applied to the skin works, and no form of follistatin is an approved or proven hair-loss treatment. Follistatin injections, "research peptides" and gene therapies sold outside regulated trials are unapproved and of unknown safety.

learn Hyaluronic Acid

Does hyaluronic acid really hydrate the scalp, or is it mainly for skin care? Hyaluronic acid improved hydration of facial skin in trials. It has not been tested on the scalp.

learn Osteopontin

What does osteopontin do in skin healing and inflammation? Osteopontin takes part in wound repair in mouse skin; its role in human scalp healing and inflammation has not been studied.

learn Scalp Micropigmentation

Does scalp micropigmentation work on all skin tones and hair colors? Providers say SMP pigment can be matched to many skin tones and hair colors; claims that it works on all of them are marketing.
