| | Scalp Extender |
 | | To assess shrinkback of bald scalp, scalp was marked with temporary tattooed points between the rows of hooks for three patients. | | | Scalp extension appears to be a useful adjunctive technique in hair replacement and reconstructive surgery, and has distinct advantages over standard scalp reduction and tissue expansion techniques. | | | The morphologic deformation of the scalp observed with expanders, which is absent with extenders, represents the fundamental difference between the two techniques. |

| | While it may seem serious to those who experience it, dandruff is not an inflammatory skin condition, as psoriasis is, but rather a general flakiness and itching of the scalp that is more embarrassing and annoying than serious, and results from the normal process of shedding the skin from the scalp. | | | One of the major causes of this general scalp itch, or dandruff, can be using the wrong shampoo or conditioner, and using it too often. | | | Many people choose a hair product that is too harsh for their scalp, and some can experience a skin reaction to the chemicals in the shampoo or conditioner. |

| | Scalp Acupuncture - George T. Lewith M.A., M.R.C.G.P., M.R.C.P. - HealthWorld Online |
| | The principle of scalp acupuncture is very straightforward; the aim is to stimulate the diseased area of the brain in order to facilitate a return of function in that area. | | | Do not start scalp needling for at least a week after the stroke; scalp acupuncture increases the blood flow to the damaged area of the brain and local cerebral bleeding may be increased if it is used too early. | | | When using scalp therapy it is vital to localize the scalp area accurately. |
