Seeing a dermatologist who specializes in hair loss would be ideal, in order to take a full history and examination that may require also a scalp biopsy.  Based on the diagnoses, a treatment plan can be recommended.
Good luck!

If you feel you have a Scalp Problem or Condition then you need to seek out a Dermatologist, they can review and assess your scalp, diagnose a condition and help you with a treatment plan perhaps. There are a few tests that may need to take place but this can be determined at a consultation.
