This case report discusses a rare instance of pressure alopecia in a four-year-old patient who developed an alopecic patch after a two-week stay in the intensive care unit. Despite early treatment with steroids and zinc pyrithione shampoo, the patient showed signs of scarring alopecia. Trichoscopy, which revealed comedone-like dots, was crucial in diagnosing this condition. The report highlights the importance of early detection and a high index of suspicion for pressure alopecia in pediatric patients with prolonged immobilization, as early intervention is key to preventing permanent hair loss.
June 2026 in “Current Opinion in Pediatrics” This review highlights the importance of recognizing and managing hair loss in adolescents with approaches tailored to their specific needs. Recent advancements include improved diagnostic techniques like trichoscopy and ultraviolet-enhanced follicular dermoscopy, which enhance accuracy and reduce the need for invasive tests. Androgenetic alopecia in adolescents is associated with obesity and genetics, with topical minoxidil as the primary treatment and low-dose oral minoxidil in certain cases. For alopecia areata, new severity frameworks consider factors like chronicity and psychosocial impact, and systemic JAK inhibitors show promise for sustained regrowth. Psychogenic hair loss is linked to mental health conditions such as anxiety and OCD. The review emphasizes the need for early, etiology-driven assessments and multidisciplinary care, while noting the lack of preventive strategies and long-term outcome data, which are crucial areas for future research.
This study investigates the effectiveness of plum-blossom needle tapping combined with ginger juice rubbing in preventing hair loss in 96 female obese patients after metabolic bariatric surgery. Utilizing a 2×2 factorial design, participants are divided into four groups: control, plum-blossom needle tapping, ginger juice rubbing, and combined treatment. The primary outcome is hair loss incidence assessed by trichoscopy at 3 and 6 months post-treatment. Secondary outcomes include biochemical indicators, Traditional Chinese Medicine syndrome scores, and appearance anxiety. The trial aims to provide preliminary data on these traditional Chinese medicine techniques as potential interventions for postoperative hair loss, offering a basis for future large-scale research.
