Reihe: The Aesthetic Dermatology & Surgery Series

This book is a comprehensive resource for dermatologists committed to advancing their trichology practice. It covers everything from the basics to the latest advancements in hair disorders, including their diagnosis and management. The chapters feature algorithms for diagnosing and treating hair disorders, and discuss newer diagnostic tools like trichoscopy, as well as the latest therapeutic options for treating hair loss, such as growth factors, lasers and energy-based devices, threads, and botulinum toxin injections.

Dedicated chapters on hair styling, salon treatments, and their effects on hair are included. This book serves as a ready reckoner for setting up or upgrading a trichology practice, covering every aspect for dermatologists. It is targeted towards young practitioners rather than fresh pass-outs or residents under training.

This book is intended for dermatologists at all stages of their careers who manage hair disorders in their practice, including both young practitioners looking to build expertise and senior clinicians seeking to refine their approach. It is particularly valuable for those running dedicated hair OPDs, offering a structured, evidence-based guide to diagnosis, treatment, and procedural interventions. Additionally, with a dedicated module on practice management, the book equips clinicians with strategies to optimize patient care, streamline workflow, and enhance the overall success of their hair practice.
