GlossaryBiopsychosocial Approach

integrates biological, psychological, and social factors in understanding health

The Biopsychosocial Approach is a comprehensive model for understanding health and illness by considering biological, psychological, and social factors. This approach recognizes that an individual's well-being is influenced not just by physical conditions, but also by mental health and social environment, making it particularly useful for conditions like alopecia, where stress and social stigma can play significant roles.
