Trichologist in Siena
Hair loss, thinning and scalp problems: trichology consultations in Siena.
People who come about their hair almost always bring the same sentence — «it is falling out» — behind which lie very different pictures: acute reversible shedding, progressive thinning, patchy loss, or hair that does not fall at all but breaks. They are approached in ways that have nothing in common.
The visit therefore begins with the distinction, and the instrument that makes it possible is magnified examination of the scalp: it shows the thickness of the shafts, the presence or absence of follicular openings, the state of the skin. This is information that does not exist in a mirror, and it separates conditions with opposite outlooks.
Several practitioners working in trichology see patients in Siena, and it is the clinic with the widest range of pathways. Some conditions have a useful window that closes: when the loss involves a reddened, painful area, assessment should not be postponed.

Frequently asked questions
How many hairs a day is normal?
The figure that circulates is indicative and matters less than people think: the useful question is not how many fall but what the remaining ones are like. Progressive thinning runs through the fining of the hairs that grow, not through heavier shedding, which is why counting in the brush says little.
Are blood tests needed?
In some cases yes, and they are chosen according to the clinical history rather than prescribed as an identical panel for everyone: iron status, thyroid function and other parameters enter the reasoning when the picture suggests it, typically in recent diffuse shedding. In other cases the diagnosis is clinical and tests add nothing.
When is it too late to act?
It depends on the picture, which is why the distinction comes first. In androgenetic thinning there is room to act while follicles are miniaturising, and it narrows as they become exhausted. In scarring forms the follicle is destroyed and what is lost does not return: there, time is not neutral and early assessment is the only thing that really counts.
