What is alopecia?
Second doctor Luke Mirandaa dermatologist member of the Brazilian Society of Dermatology, there are two different types of alopecia: areata and androgenetic.
The expert warns that this problem can have a negative impact on the mental health and self-esteem of patients and that, to treat it, it is essential to have the help of a dermatologist so that the professional investigates and determines the appropriate course of action.
alopecia areata
Considered an inflammatory and non-contagious disease, alopecia areata causes hair loss and is characterized by circular defects. It can be related to several factors, such as genetics and autoimmune involvement. Emotional issues, physical trauma, and infectious conditions can trigger or worsen the condition.
The specialist explains that the extent of this hair loss can be different, depending on the case. In some situations, a few regions are affected, but there are also rarer ones where there is complete loss of hair on the head or body.
Due to the fact that alopecia areata does not destroy hair follicles, this condition does not prevent hair from growing back, even if total loss occurs. Meanwhile, this inflammation can generate new outbreaks, causing the individual to lose their threads again.
Periods of great stress can be associated with the development of alopecia areata, as stress weakens the immune system, helping to generate an autoimmune response from the body and causing inflammation of the hair follicles.
“The stressful scenario causes the levels of cortisol, known as the stress hormone, to remain constantly high. This interferes with the activity and health of the hair follicle, preventing it from entering the growth phase and causing clumps of hair to fall out. hair. , which generates loopholes in the circular format”, underlines the Dr. Luciana Passoni, doctor specializing in hair and hair transplantation
androgenic alopecia
Androgenetic alopecia is a disease that mainly affects men, but can also occur in women. This condition can begin to develop in adolescence, when sex hormones begin to be produced. The main complaints are: thinning hair and more noticeable scalp.
“The concept accepted by the scientific community to date is that the male and female hormonal axis, consisting of ovaries/uterus and testis/prostate respectively, lead to the production of androgen hormones (such as testosterone). This, in turn, is transformed into DHT (dihydrotestosterone), through the action of an enzyme (5 alpha-reductase). DHT, therefore, acts on the hair follicle and over the years causes the so-called miniaturization of the hair in genetically predisposed subjects. This begins with puberty, with ‘hormones on the surface'”, specifies the dermatologist doctor Philip Chediekwith a specialist title from the Brazilian Society of Dermatology (SBD) and a postgraduate diploma in trichology and capillary therapy from Anhembi Morumbi University.
