Abstract
Trichoscopy is currently regarded as an essential part of the hair loss consultation. It allows visualization of morphologic structures that are not obvious to the naked eye, including peri- and interfollicular skin surface abnormalities and changes to hair shaft thickness and shape. In this paper, we aim to discuss current knowledge on trichoscopy of the most common forms of scarring and nonscarring alopecias.
