Tufted folliculitis is common in patients with folliculitis decalvans.

Trichoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing different hair and scalp diseases by their unique visual features.

The document describes how to tell different types of non-scarring hair loss apart by looking at hair and scalp tissue under a microscope.

Male pattern baldness involves smaller hair follicles, larger oil glands, and other tissue changes, but not major blood supply issues.

Using dermoscopy to guide scalp biopsies is an effective way to diagnose cicatricial alopecia.

The document concludes that understanding and treating hair loss requires recognizing its various types and using appropriate diagnostic tools and treatments.

Different types of hair loss in lupus need careful diagnosis for proper treatment.

Permanent hair loss from cicatricial alopecia is treated by reducing inflammation and managing symptoms, but regrowth in scarred areas is unlikely.

Cholesterol-related compounds can stop hair growth and cause inflammation in a type of scarring hair loss.

Transverse scalp sections are better for diagnosing non-scarring hair loss, while vertical sections are better for a specific scarring hair loss called lichen planopilaris.

Some patients with a type of skin lymphoma can experience a rare, non-scarring hair loss that looks like another hair loss condition but has distinct features.

Transverse scalp biopsies are more accurate for diagnosing non-cicatricial alopecia, but examining both types is best for accuracy.

Trichoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing and managing hair and scalp conditions, often better than traditional methods.

Diagnosing alopecia areata is challenging and requires careful examination and various tests to distinguish it from other hair loss types.

Careful planning and accurate diagnosis are crucial for successful hair restoration surgery.

Different races and genders have unique skin and hair issues, requiring specialized care and more research for effective treatment.

The document explains various skin conditions and their treatments.

Lichen planopilaris is a rare, chronic condition causing hair loss, mainly in middle-aged women, and early treatment is important to prevent permanent baldness.
