PREFACE
We are pleased to present this edition of trichology in the series of “Year Book of Dermatology – 2019”. Trichology is the fastest growing offshoot of dermatology with over 30% of patients requiring services of dermatologists for various hair disorders who attend dermatology outpatient department on a daily basis.
As the subject is ever expanding, a lot of research, clinical trials and innovations are constantly flooding the literature. It's humanly impossible to get the knowledge of all what's happening in the field of trichology. This is an attempt to scan the publications on trichology in the year 2018 and 2019. The book is divided into various sections starting from basic trichology to surgical trichology. The articles are selected on the basis of merit and usefulness to both researchers and practicing clinical dermatologists. We have meticulously scanned over 250 publications and selected most useful 118 articles. The articles are judged and edited by experts in the field of trichology, finally edited by myself and Associate Editor Dr Madura C.
I am thankfully acknowledging Dr Madura C, Dr Shruthi C, Dr Kusuma MR, Dr Preethi B Nayak and Mr Lakshmi Narayana N for their attempts to search the meritorious articles.
I hope and expect this book will meet the expectations of fellow dermatologists, postgraduate and fellowship students of dermatology.
I sincerely thank Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers (P) Ltd. for their magnificent work in designing and publishing this book. I also thank Dr Reddy's Laboratories for the educational grant for this work.
Happy reading and wishful learning!
BS Chandrashekar
