 ALOPECIA

 

Hair is an important part of the total self-image especially for women. Most often though, a beautiful and healthy full head of hairs is taken for granted. Waking up one morning with a clump of hair on your pillow or you notice a patch of bald area on your scalp could be caused by a condition known as Alopecia Areata --- a highly unpredictable auto-immune skin disease, which results in the loss of hair on the scalp and sometimes elsewhere on the body, usually starts with one or more small, round, smooth patches.

 

 TRICHOTILLOMANIA

 

Trichotillomania is a disorder that involves recurrent, irresistible urges to pull out hair from your scalp, eyebrows or other areas of your body, despite trying to stop. Hair-pulling from the scalp often leaves patchy bald spots, which causes significant distress and can interfere with normal social or work activity. For some, trichotillomania may be mild and generally manageable. For others, the compulsive urge to pull hair is overwhelming.
