Consultant Dermatologists Dr Jiyad and Dr Ferguson at St George's hospital, Tooting produce a monthly journal review newsletter, which summarises clinically relevant studies, from various dermatology and general medical journals. There just never seems to be enough time to stay up to date with all the various journals and find publications that contain clinically relevant messages. This is the podcast version so that you can keep up to date whilst enjoying the delights of the Northern line or whilst driving to work in your Aston Martin. But perhaps not when cycling to work. All of this work is generously supported by an educational grant from Abbvie.

Threads of Consensus: Mapping Modern AGA Care (00:06:01)
AGA GuidelinesThere is a large void when it comes to guidelines for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia, specifically FPHL. In this final lesson, we bring it all together, with recently published 2025 guidelines that help to fill that void and provide worldwide guidance, reflecting common practice in the UK and elsewhere.
Platelets & Potions (00:07:29)
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)Some clinicians swear by it, others have had a less favourable experience with it. So, what’s the low-down on PRP for FPHL?
Lighting Up the Follicle: What LLLT Really Offers (00:06:57)
Low Level Laser Light Therapy (LLLT)Everyone’s talking about it. But should we be recommending it? And if so, which devices? How often? Let’s review the recent evidence.
LDOM: The Minoxidil Mosaic (00:04:20)
Low Dose Oral Minoxidil (LDOM)There is a lot of hype around LDOM and it is increasingly used for all types of alopecia. But, what doses should we use? Do we need to monitor it? And what are the side effects? We summarise the evidence here.
FPHL: The Bloodwork Blueprint (00:10:31)
When should we do blood tests? Which tests? And how?This lesson summarises consensus views on blood tests for FPHL and how to do testing when required. Based on dermatology as well as endocrinological guidelines and papers, we bring summarise the salient points.
The Widening Part: Revisiting Female-Pattern Hair Loss (00:09:35)
Today on Dermatology Snapshots, we are looking at the New England Journal of Medicine 2025 Clinical Practice review on Female-Pattern Hair Loss by Dr. Elise Olsen. It’s a condition that affects up to 12% of women in their thirties, and over half of women over seventy.
The Dead Cell Paradox (00:13:34)
We’re launching a ‘mini-snaps’ series where we delve deep into particular topics and summarise the latest evidence and guidelines, through a handpicked search of the most relevant papers. This series, Root Cause, is all about alopecia. We're starting with the incredibly common, female pattern hair loss. On our website, you’ll find videos, handouts and lots of helpful resources. But today, we kick off the series with a look at hair through history.

Antiandrogens in FPHL: The Thinning Line. (00:06:32)
