In what situations do patients go to this doctor?
The field of expertise of the trichologist is hair and everything related to them. Consider the basic situations when you cannot do without the help of this doctor.
Hair fall out
Hair loss is the most popular reason that is addressed to the trichologist. To identify the source of the problem, the doctor conducts a comprehensive analysis: interviews the patient, finds out the diet and medicines that he takes, conducts trichoscopy. Causes of loss can be:
- decreased immunity;
- lack of iron in the body;
- reaction to medication;
- hormonal imbalance;
- chronic diseases;
- poor microcirculation of the scalp;
- lack of vitamins and trace elements in the diet;
- chronic or acute stress.
Trichologist determines the cause and develops an individual program that will save hair and will prevent their further loss. Among the possible therapeutic areas may be a change in diet, the appointment of additional vitamins and minerals, medication, the use of creams and special shampoos, physiotherapy.
Hair became brittle and split
Brittleness can be of two types: longitudinal and transverse. Longitudinal breakage is split ends. They are often found in women with long hair and in men with a thick beard. When transverse fragility on the hair shaft nodules is formed, which become weak points. In the case of mechanical impact (scratching, braiding), the nodules are broken and the hair is divided into two parts.
The trichologist must determine the type of fragility and identify the cause. Most often, fragility occurs due to:
- improperly selected head skin care products;
- frequent use of hair dryers, irons and ploek;
- low-quality paint;
- use of accessories that weight the hair;
- malfunction of the sebaceous glands;
- lack of vitamins and microelements in the diet.
After that, the doctor prescribes treatment. It usually combines individually selected medications and recommendations for the selection of shampoo, creams and other scalp care products.
Dandruff appeared
Dandruff is flaky horny scalp scales. The patient is worried about the constant itching and sloppy appearance due to the large number of white plates on the hair. The causes of dandruff are many: metabolic disorders, hormonal imbalances, chronic diseases of internal organs, errors in diet and daily regimen. Trichologist will identify this cause and make an individual program for the treatment of the disease.
