Medical Dermatology - Understanding the Root of Hair Loss and Scalp Concerns
Hair & Scalp Disorders
Hair thinning, bald patches, or scalp irritation can cause more than just physical discomfort — they often affect self-esteem and confidence, too. At On the Spot Dermatology, we’re here to help you uncover the root cause of hair or scalp issues and provide effective, personalized treatment options.

Hair & Scalp Disorders We Treat
We diagnose and treat a wide range of skin conditions, including:
Alopecia Areata
An autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks hair follicles, resulting in round patches of sudden hair loss. It can affect the scalp, eyebrows, or other areas. While it may resolve on its own, treatment options include steroid injections, topical immunotherapy, or PRP therapy.
Male & Female Pattern Hair Loss
The most common type of hair thinning, also known as androgenetic alopecia. In men, it often causes a receding hairline or crown thinning; in women, it may appear as diffuse thinning at the part or top of the scalp. We offer medications like minoxidil and finasteride, lifestyle guidance, and advanced in-office treatments.
Folliculitis
A common inflammatory condition where hair follicles become infected or irritated, often from shaving, sweating, or friction. It can resemble acne-like bumps and may itch or burn. Treated with antibacterial or anti-inflammatory creams and proper skin hygiene guidance.
Scalp Dermatitis
Includes conditions like seborrheic dermatitis (flaky, itchy scalp) or psoriasis. These cause redness, itching, and visible scaling, and can worsen with stress or product use. Managed with medicated shampoos, topical steroids, and antifungal or soothing agents.
