Have you ever heard of Folliculitis decalvans?
It’s a chronic inflammatory scalp condition that can quietly lead to permanent hair loss if not properly managed.
You might notice:
• Redness or irritation on the scalp
• Small pustules (pimple-like bumps)
• Crusting or scaling
• Hair growing in “tufts” (multiple hairs from one follicle)
Over time, this inflammation can destroy the follicle—leading to scarring and irreversible hair loss.
The biggest mistake?
Ignoring it… or treating it like basic dandruff.
This is NOT something you want to self-diagnose.
Early intervention is key. With the right professional guidance, we can calm the inflammation, slow progression, and create a plan to preserve as much hair as possible.
If something doesn’t feel right with your scalp, trust that instinct.
Because when it comes to scarring conditions like this… time matters.
