HERE'S WHY INFLAMMATION IS A PROBLEM FOR YOUR HAIR

Find out how to combat shedding due to an irritated scalp!

According to recent studies, one in three men in the age group of 20 to 50 years of age has, or has experienced, problems related to scalp inflammation; this condition, while seemingly mild, can carry a tremendous amount of implications: one among them, hair loss.

The latest research in trichology has shown a clear link between hair loss and scalp inflammation, or, in technical jargon, trichodynia:

Clinical studies have indicated that about 47% of patients with androgenetic alopecia report symptoms of trichodynia.
Other research suggests, however, that 60-70% of people who report trichodynia also have high levels of stress, a known trigger for premature hair loss.

What are the symptoms of trichodynia?

The symptoms of trichodynia are many, and although this condition purely affects the skin, it can have repercussions related to general mental and physical well-being. Among the most common ones we have:

Scalp pain

The pain can be localized or spread over the entire head: it can be described as a tense sensation or stinging pain.

Burning, itching and redness

The scalp may be itchy, even in the absence of a rash or other visible condition.

Hypersensitivity of the scalp

The scalp can become very sensitive to touch, and everyday actions, such as combing or washing hair, can be painful.

Headache or associated headache

Trichodynia may be accompanied or associated with episodes of headache, with a feeling of pressure or heaviness in the forehead or temple area.

Hair loss:

Inflammation is one of the triggers that triggers baldness and specifically male androgenetic alopecia: this is precisely why targeted intervention is critical.

Why is 'inflammation harmful to the scalp?

Inflammation of the scalp, or trichodynia, is a condition that can have devastating effects on hair and skin health. When the scalp is inflamed, an immune response is triggered that can lead to symptoms that are bothersome such as itching, redness and hypersensitivity. This inflammatory state can compromise the health of hair follicles, hindering their ability to produce strong, healthy hair. In addition, trichodynia can interfere with the proper delivery of nutrients and oxygen to the follicles, making hair more debulous and vulnerable to premature hair loss. The skin, when irritated or inflamed, is extremely more susceptible to infections and other dermatological conditions that can drastically damage the hair and alter its life cycle, among them:

Is it possible to counteract inflammation?

It is critical to pay attention to these signs and take preventive measures to maintain a healthy scalp and promote vigorous hair growth; chronic inflammation is linked to systemic health problems, which can also be reflected in hair quality. Stress, unregulated diet, and the use of irritating products can contribute to this inflammatory state. The most important advice is to use specific products to treat these manifestations, such as using gentle shampoos (e.g., RestaX Shampoo Sebocare) or applying anti-inflammatory treatments, to maintain a healthy scalp and promote vigorous hair growth. Investing in scalp health is not just a matter of aesthetics, but a crucial step for the overall well-being of hair and skin.

Is there a SPECIFIC product to combat trichodynia and promote hair regrowth?

To counteract inflammation of the male scalp and promote hair regrowth , research Wikenfarma has developed RestaX Flogo, the first nutraceutical in capsules that acts with a triple action: anti-androgenic, antioxidant, and above all, anti-inflammatory.

In contrast to competitors who have products that focus on only one of the three aspects, RestaX Flogo turns out to be the most comprehensive because it acts first and foremost on inflammation, while simultaneously performing two other actions (antioxidant and antiandrogenic) that are fundamental to stopping hair loss and promoting hair regrowth.
