Scalp abnormalities
The test may thus be highlighted with the following abnormalities:
-
Skin with excess of sebum, seborrhea cuts.
-
Skin with the presence of dry dandruff.
-
Skin with presence of fat dandruff.
Seborrheic
Here we find ourselves diagnosing a seborrheic skin, in cases of hyperactivity of the sebaceous glands. Very often the hyperactivity of such glands, besides causing a bad smell, visually comes with a hairy hair. Seborrhea sometimes evolves into DERMATITE SEBORROICA, a case where excess sebum causes a skin inflammation and this can be evidenced by oily scales and a scalp. There is a need to act promptly to remove the excess sebum in order not to turn a blemish into a true "ALOPECIA SEBORROICA", ie the thinning of the hair caused by an excess of sebum.
Dandruff
Dandruff or pitirasis is a difficult condition to hide, and it is a problem affecting 50% of the adult population in the world. In this case, let's talk about skin with dry dandruff when scalp skin is dehydrated, fine and whitish scales dislodge without any particular signs of skin irritation. Head itching is obvious, but it is not a symptom in excessive form. There is no hair loss, but the aesthetic appearance is obvious.

What is Trichology?
Trichology studies the phenomena of physiology and the pathology of hair. All the hair falls, as they are subject to spare. Normally the hair falls when the follicle has already produced a new one to replace it. The life cycle of follicles varies according to age, health conditions and various other factors.
The three phases of hair life

3
Anagen Phase
It is subdivided into 6 sub-stages, lasting 2-4 years on average in men and 3-7 years in women. The hair extends about 1 cm a month but can reach 1.5 cm in the woman, so it is understood how the maximum lengths in hair can be different in both sexes. This hair is well anchored and can be removed only by exercising a strong traction.
Catagen Phase
It is the transition phase that lasts from 2 to 3 weeks begins with the arrest of melanocytes and a progressive blockage of vital functions.
Telogen phase
Functional rest period lasting 2 or 3 months, after which the hair falls and is replaced by a new one.
The trichological visit
The trichological examination identifies abnormalities affecting the scalp and the hair. Allows the practitioner to proceed through an instrumental analysis that involves two phases:
In the first phase, the expert collects personal, family information and patient history. The second phase concerns the objective examination of the condition of the scalp and hair, through the trichometry and videoodermoscopy. With Trichometry, the hair is displayed, enlarged, by a polarized microscope to be analyzed in all its parts. With Videodermoscopy, we investigate the state of health of the scalp and its attachments, using a fiber optic microscope. Through anamnesis, objective and instrumental examination, the expert has the ability to cure not only inflammatory and pathological aspects of the scalp, but also to slow down the process of hair loss.
