Hey everyone,
im new here and have been having a problem with hairloss for about 5 years now, im 25 now and it all started when I decided to use hair relaxer cremes to straighten my very curly hair (which i so regret). I experienced burning of the scalp and never gave it much thought and developed irritations on my scalp later on which i never expected. soon followed by thinning hair and hairloss which I have slowly experienced until today.
It would seem that i have MPH but it is not. I want to get down to the source of my problem and find a solution, Im getting sick of it and I know its all my own fault for not tackling the issue when it first started, i was young, stupid, and unknowledgable.
im looking into finding the right dermatologist that can point me in the right direction and wont be a waste of time and can tell me exactly what my problem is, what else i can expect and the proper fix even if its bad enuff that I have to get hair transplantation.
anyone have any experiences with this type of hairloss due to chemical burn on the scalp?
also what spealty dermatogolist do i need to seek out? I have found this site.
http://www.longislanddermatologists.org/
that lists doctors in my area (long island,NY) and it asks what specialty im looking for, and I want him to be as experienced with my situation so im not wasting my time.
anyone that can help pllleeeeeease do! THANKS!!
