Hair Loss Treatment
There are several different types of hair loss that people may experience, and treatment depends on the correct diagnosis.
Typically, dermatologists diagnose hair disorders by a thorough history, examination, biopsy and categorization.
Alopecia areata is characterized by hair falling out, resulting in smooth, round patches on the scalp. In some cases, alopecia areata can cause the complete loss of scalp and body hair. The condition is most common in people under 30.
Another type of hair loss that is prevalent in more than 50 percent of patients over 40 is androgenetic alopecia. Commonly referred to as female or male-patterned baldness, androgenetic alopecia affects men and women differently.
In men, androgenetic alopecia is characterized by a receding frontal hairline and balding at the top of the scalp. In women, the frontal hairline is preserved and thinning over the front and top of the scalp is common. Androgenetic alopecia usually begins in women in their late 20s or early 30s.
