Some immunosuppressed patients can get unusual skin infections from Malassezia, which can be treated with antifungal medication.

Segmental Vitiligo is a stable, early-onset form of vitiligo that responds well to early treatment and is ideal for repigmentation studies.

A child had a rare case of scarring hair loss with skin disease, which is hard to treat and stressful.

Hidradenitis Suppurativa is a chronic skin condition best treated early with surgery for better outcomes and less recurrence.

Triple horizontal scalp biopsies are 98% accurate in diagnosing hair loss, better than single biopsies.

A clinically suspected melanoma appeared benign under the microscope but was confirmed by specific tests and a rare mutation.

Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.

Treatments for autoimmune hair loss have limited success and patients need emotional support and self-acceptance.

Finasteride increases hair count and improves hair growth with low risk of side effects.
