WHAT IS TRICOLOGY?
Trichology is the part of Medicine that deals with the anatomy, function and pathology of the hair and scalp. Our hair is an important indicator of imbalances and alterations in the rest of the body and, many times, reveals metabolic, nutritional or psychological problems.
The most common pathologies are those related to alopecia (hair loss) at any age, which has different causes that must be studied individually.
WHEN TO CONSULT?
Losing up to 100 hairs a day is normal, we appreciate it especially when washing and styling. The time to request medical information will be when we observe areas where the skin of the scalp becomes more visible or a loss of overall density in the hair, especially if it is accompanied by other symptoms (itching, redness). In cases of hormonal alopecia, early diagnosis significantly improves long-term results.
