    GlossarySkin Carcinogenesis

    Skin carcinogenesis refers to the process by which normal skin cells undergo malignant transformation, leading to the development of skin cancer. This process is often influenced by factors such as UV radiation, chemical exposure, and genetic predispositions. In the context of hair loss, certain skin cancers can affect the scalp and hair follicles, potentially leading to hair thinning or loss. Key distinguishing characteristics include the type of skin cancer (e.g., melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma) and the mechanisms of tumor development, which can vary significantly among different skin cancer types.
