Many people in real life experience hair loss, which is related to many factors such as high life pressure, unreasonable diet, and scalp diseases. It is necessary to treat hair loss symptomatically, and in severe cases, it is also necessary to go to the hospital for examination and treatment. Sometimes, hair follicle detection is also required. Hair follicle detection generally requires a referral to the dermatology department.

What department should I go to for hair follicle detection?

For hair follicle detection, you need to go to the dermatology department. Dermatology has a special equipment called an electronic dermatoscope, which can examine the state of the hair follicle opening, further inferring the state of the hair follicle, as well as the type and prognosis of hair loss and other related issues. The principle of the electronic dermatoscope is to irradiate polarized light onto the skin surface, which can more carefully discover skin details and lesions. Through the magnification effect of the computer terminal, it assists doctors in diagnosing skin diseases, including the discrimination of inflammation around the hair follicle opening and the hair follicle itself.

What should I do if I experience frequent hair loss?

1. Balanced diet: Many people have the habit of being picky eaters, eating more of the foods they like and less or none of the foods they don't like. This can easily lead to nutritional imbalances in the long run. Our hair growth requires a lot of nutrients, especially various vitamins and proteins, which are essential for hair growth. If there is a lack of nutrition, the hair will appear dry, frizzy, dull, yellow, and brittle, and in severe cases, may even experience extensive hair loss. Therefore, it is very important to maintain a balanced diet in daily life, fully intake the nutrients needed by the body, eat fresh vegetables and fruits, and consume high-quality proteins, which can help you grow healthy and lush hair.

2. Brush and massage your hair regularly: Brushing your hair not only makes it look smooth and styled, but also has many benefits for scalp health. Regular brushing can promote blood circulation in the head and enhance local metabolism. The nutrients and nourishment needed for hair growth are transported by blood. Good blood circulation and sufficient nutrients will naturally lead to healthier hair. Additionally, massaging the scalp can also improve blood circulation in the head, which is beneficial for hair growth. When you have free time, you might as well give your scalp a good massage.

3. Wash your hair scientifically and reduce the frequency of dyeing and perms: Washing your hair can remove dirt and oil from the scalp, which is an important part of daily hygiene. However, many people do not wash their hair scientifically. It is not advisable to wash your hair too frequently, generally keeping it at around 2 to 3 times per week. Frequent washing may disrupt the scalp's natural oils, leading to dry scalp, dandruff, and itching, which is not conducive to hair growth.
