    Glossary Follicular Red Dots

    small, red pinpoint spots on the scalp indicating inflamed follicles

    Follicular red dots are small, red, pinpoint spots that can be observed on the scalp, often seen through dermoscopy. They are typically associated with conditions like alopecia areata, where the immune system attacks hair follicles, leading to hair loss. These dots represent inflamed or damaged hair follicles and can be a useful diagnostic feature for dermatologists.
