It is not uncommon for specialists in dermatology and skincare to hear complaints from their clients not only about their skin but also about their hair. This book provides the basic information on hair and trichology to give a competent answer.

Many external and internal factors influence hair conditions. Sometimes, it is difficult to establish the exact cause of hair structure deterioration or loss. But without diagnostics, it is impossible to prescribe the proper treatment, and carrying out diagnostics is impossible without knowledge of anatomy and physiology. This is why the book begins with the basics of hair anatomy and physiology, where, among other things, we look at the mechanisms of neuroendocrine regulation of the hair life cycle.

A particular emphasis in the book is placed on instrumental methods of analysis, with the help of which the diagnosis is made and the effectiveness of therapy is evaluated. Some are highly specialized; another can be used to assess skin conditions in routine dermatology or skincare practice.

The book details the most common hair problems, such as hair loss and thinning. Some skincare and dermatological tools (cosmetics, injectables, devices) and treatments can also be successfully applied to the scalp to improve its condition and, consequently, hair growth and appearance. We tell you about these approaches and explain in what situations you can count on and what cases you can’t.

Hair transplantation is the solution when everything has been tried and hair loss can’t be stopped. This book also briefly discusses this aspect of trichology so that our readers are as informed as possible about all available options.

Dandruff, one of the most frequent scalp problems, is highlighted in a separate chapter to provide more details about its causes and substantiate strategies and tactics for its prevention and treatment in different situations.

The problem of unwanted hair growth on those parts of the face and body where there should be some stands apart. Moreover, skincare specialists and beauticians actively work with unwanted hair, unlike hair problems on the scalp. The book gives an overview of hair removal methods and discusses their possibilities.
