Objectives: The objective of this discussion is to explore both current and emerging treatment approaches for alopecia areata, with a focus on evaluating the effectiveness and potential risks of each option. Emphasis will be placed on carefully selecting the most appropriate treatment based on the patient’s condition and preferences to optimize outcomes. Additionally, the latest consensus from European dermatologists will be discussed to provide insight into new advancements and guidelines in the field

Introduction: Alopecia areata is a chronic condition characterized by relapsing, nonscarring hair loss. Its clinical course can vary widely, with the possibility of spontaneous resolution, persistence, recurrence, or progression.. The unpredictability of alopecia areata, with its potential for recurrence or progression,causes emotional strain.Patients often experience uncertainty about the future, not knowing if or when their hair might grow back or fall out again. Managing alopecia areata requires a delicate personalized approach.

Materials / method: This abstract is based on my extensive clinical experience in treating Alopecia Areata using both classic and innovative approaches. I have integrated insights from the European Dermatologists Society (EADV) guidelines, which play a crucial role in shaping evidence-based treatments. Additionally, I have reviewed and incorporated findings from recently published breakthrough articles, reflecting the latest advancements in the field. The methodology includes a comparative analysis of traditional methods and novel therapies, focusing on efficacy, safety, and patient outcomes.

Conclusion: Treatment strategies depend on the severity of the condition and the extent of hair loss. Initial therapies often include intralesional and topical corticosteroids, as well as topical immunotherapy. Systemic treatments, such as oral baricitinib, ritlecitinib, and other Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors, show promise in addressing more advanced cases. Additional therapies include excimer laser therapy, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and photochemotherapy. Each option will be explored in detail in this lecture!

Objectives: Chemical peels are one of the most commonly used cosmetic treatments in clinical practice. However, their use for scalp and hair is rarely reported. In this presentation, we introduce the benefits of the application of chemical peels for the scalp and hair conditions, and discuss the potential role of superficial chemical peels to fill in an important therapeutic and beautification need.

Introduction: It is known that chemical peels cause controlled wounding to the epidermal or/and the dermal layer of the skin. This stimulates new tissue development, removes hyperkeratosis, and improves circulation. Both light and medium peels can be used for scalp and hair therapy. In our practice we have seen that acids like mandelic, glycolic, salicylic, lactic have proven to deliver improvement in seborrheic dermatitis, scalp psoriasis, inflammation, hair loss.

Materials / method: In this presentation we will show the technique of application (video), and focus on the use of chemical peels in our trichology practice for different hair and scalp conditions.

Results: Used properly, the superficial chemical peels have the potential to fill in an important therapeutic need in the treatment of some hair and scalp conditions.

Conclusion: In our practice, we use acids like mandelic, glycolic, salicylic, lactic to deliver improvement in seborrheic dermatitis, scalp psoriasis, inflammation and hair loss.

Objectives: 1. Integrate the latest research findings into dietary recommendations and treatment plans for individuals experiencing hair loss.
2. Educate on the latest evidence-based strategies for using diet and nutraceuticals to support hair health.
2. Identify the potential risks and benefits of using nutraceuticals based on existing research.
3. Critically evaluate the quality of research studies, including study design, sample size, and validity of conclusions.
4. Identify key vitamins and minerals essential for maintaining healthy hair.

Introduction: The connection between diet and hair health is a vital yet often overlooked factor in preventing and managing hair loss. This lecture explores the essential role of nutrition in sustaining healthy hair, emphasizing the impact of key vitamins and minerals on hair growth and strength. We will evaluate current scientific research on the use of nutraceuticals, assessing the evidence for their efficacy in enhancing hair health.

Materials / method: Review of the literature

Results: The results indicate that diet and nutritional status are critical determinants of hair growth, with certain nutrients playing a vital role in maintaining hair health and preventing hair loss. Despite the availability of numerous nutraceuticals claiming to enhance hair growth, the existing research is inadequate to conclusively support their effectiveness. Current studies highlight the need for more rigorous and comprehensive research to validate the benefits and assess the potential risks of these supplements. Therefore, emphasizing a balanced diet rich in essential nutrients remains the most

Conclusion: Diet and nutritional status play a crucial role in hair growth, with specific nutrients significantly influencing hair health and preventing hair loss. While there are many nutraceuticals on the market claiming to support hair growth, the current body of research remains insufficient to fully endorse their efficacy. Further rigorous studies are needed to establish clear evidence on the benefits and potential risks of these supplements. As such, a balanced diet rich in essential nutrients should be prioritized, while staying informed about emerging research on nutraceuticals for
