Comprehensive Medical and Surgical Approaches to Treating Hair Disorders
Now thoroughly updated, this new edition of the acclaimed Hair Loss and Restoration remains the definitive clinical guide to the diagnosis and management of all forms of hair loss. This compact and accessible reference delivers essential knowledge to dermatologists, plastic surgeons, hair restoration specialists, and trainees in aesthetic and medical dermatology.
Covering both medical and surgical approaches, the book opens with detailed discussions on patient evaluation and examination techniques, emphasizing accurate diagnosis as the cornerstone of effective treatment. In-depth chapters explore androgenetic alopecia, the most common form of hair loss, as well as alopecia areata, with new insights into its pathogenesis and the latest therapeutic advancements. Additional coverage includes drug- and radiation-induced alopecia, telogen effluvium, and frontal fibrosing alopecia, a growing concern in scarring hair loss.
A dedicated section on hair restoration surgery provides expert surgical insight, while the book also examines non-medical approaches and emerging treatments, equipping clinicians with a holistic understanding of the available options.
Praised by aesthetic professionals for its clinical utility—“This book has added value to my aesthetic practice and allowed me to be better for my patients” (PMFA Journal)—this edition continues to be an invaluable resource for both training and everyday practice.
