Follicultis decalvans
Folliculitis decalvans is a slowly spreading inflammation of the hair follicle, which leads to progressive scarring. It is distinguished by follicular plugging and multiple rounded or oval patches can be found on the scalp, each surrounded by crops of follicular pustules. There may be no other changes, but successive crops of pustules, each followed by the destruction of the affected follicles, produce the slow extension of the alopecia. The exact cause of this condition is still uncertain, but is most likely an abnormal 'host response' to various common bacteria.
To treat this condition, we would recommend:
|
No.11 - Lotion with Glycerine for Irritated Scalps
|
Directions - Directions for Use: After washing the hair, towel dry a little and apply the lotion, either straight
from the bottle, or by wetting cotton wool and then applying to the scalp. The lotion is then
left on the scalp to allow it to have an on going effect until the hair is next washed.
Ingredients - Aqua, Glycerine, Cetramide, Aloe Vera, Wheat Amino Acid.
