    Yellow dots are a clinical sign observed during dermoscopy of the scalp, often associated with conditions like alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia. They appear as yellowish, round or polycyclic structures and indicate the presence of sebaceous glands and keratinous material within hair follicles, which can help in diagnosing and differentiating various types of hair loss.
