The article "Plea for a Hair Consultation" deals with the topic of hair loss and advancements in therapy. It emphasizes that hair loss is an aesthetic problem, regardless of the cause. The authors mention the merits of colleagues who have raised awareness of the problem and the implementation of a hair consultation in dermatological practices. It also points out the introduction of new treatment options such as the NWM MesoHair Cocktail and Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy (PRP). Finally, it is mentioned that in addition to female patients, an increasing number of male patients are seeking medical practices to prevent baldness. The authors suggest that dermatologists should diagnose difficult-to-determine forms of hair loss, while aesthetic physicians should offer treatments such as MesoHair and medication. Hair transplants should be performed by surgically active colleagues. The goal of a hair consultation is to recommend the appropriate approach for treating the patient's hair loss. It emphasizes that comprehensive diagnostics are only ethically justified if they are a necessary prerequisite for therapy. Patients also have their own goals that go beyond those of the doctors, and it is pointed out that the patients' suffering should be taken into account. [Extracted from the article]
