Hair Loss

Androgenetic alopecia

This hereditary condition affects both men and women and is characterized by a gradual thinning of hair over time.

Alopecia areata

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles, leading to hair loss. It can manifest as small, round bald patches on the scalp or other areas of the body.

Telogen effluvium

This temporary hair loss condition is often triggered by factors like childbirth, severe illness, medications, or emotional stress. It leads to a significant shedding of hair a few months after the triggering event

Traction alopecia

This type of hair loss is caused by excessive tension on the hair follicles, often due to tight hairstyles like braids or ponytails. Over time, it can lead to hair thinning or bald patches.

Scarring alopecia

Scarring alopecia refers to hair loss associated with the destruction of hair follicles and their replacement with scar tissue. It may result from conditions like lichen planopilaris or trauma to the scalp.
