Trichology is the science of the structure, function and diseases of the human hair.

This book is a comprehensive guide to the diagnosis and treatment of diseases and disorders of the hair and scalp.

Divided into six sections, the text begins with an overview of hair and the normal scalp, factors controlling hair growth and changes that occur during the aging process. The next section discusses diagnostic trichology methods including microscopy and trichoscopy.
