Hair Loss
If you are experiencing thinning hair, increased shedding, or bald patches, a consultation with a dermatology provider for hair loss is an important first step. Hair loss can affect the scalp, eyebrows, eyelashes, and other areas of the body and may be temporary or permanent depending on the cause.
Common signs of hair loss include:
Widening part or thinning at the crown
Receding hairline
Excessive shedding during washing or brushing
Patchy hair loss or bald spots
Sudden or rapid hair thinning
CAUSES OF HAIR LOSS
Hair loss (alopecia) can result from a variety of medical and dermatologic conditions, including:
Genetics (androgenic alopecia or male/female pattern hair loss)
Hormonal changes (pregnancy, menopause, thyroid disorders)
Stress or illness (telogen effluvium)
Autoimmune conditions (alopecia areata)
Nutritional deficiencies
Medications or medical treatments
Scalp conditions such as psoriasis or seborrheic dermatitis
Because there are many potential causes, accurate diagnosis is critical for effective hair loss treatment.
Why Evaluation for Hair Loss Matters
Without proper diagnosis and treatement, hair loss may:
Progress and become permanent
Signal an untreated medical condition
Lead to scarring of the scalp
Cause emotional distress and decreased self-confidence
