Hello,
Thank you for your query.
• Based on the information provided, it is difficult to suggest the most appropriate treatment without a proper assessment, as several skin conditions can appear similar.
• Kindly share clear photographs of the affected area in good lighting along with details such as duration of the problem, symptoms, and any treatments used previously.
• I would advise against starting any OTC creams or self-medication, as some products may worsen the condition or delay proper treatment.
• An accurate diagnosis is the first step towards effective and long-lasting results.
You may book a consultation for a detailed evaluation and a personalized treatment plan. I would be happy to guide you further.
Please do not worry. Effective treatment options are available; however, management depends on the severity and extent of the condition. A detailed medical history is essential for appropriate evaluation and treatment planning.
Kindly schedule an online consultation with a dermatologist for a comprehensive assessment, prescription, and further guidance.”
Scalp biopsy is a good way to find the exact cause. Cost in Bangalore is roughly Rs 3000-7000 at dermatology clinics. It can clearly show if it is androgenetic (DHT-related) or inflammatory (like alopecia areata or lichen planopilaris). Small punch biopsy done under local anesthesia, quick procedure.
Next Steps
See a dermatologist for clinical assessment first â the pattern of hair loss often gives a good clue before biopsy. If biopsy is needed, they will guide you. Consult me on Practo to discuss your hair loss pattern in detail.
Depends on the area
Detailed medical history needs to be assessed before starting you on your personalised treatment
