Hair and scalp health isn’t just about how your hair looks; it’s about what’s happening beneath the surface. Knowing when to see a dermatologist versus a hair stylist can make all the difference in protecting your long-term hair health.

See a dermatologist …
If you’re experiencing persistent hair loss, sudden or severe shedding, chronic scalp irritation, painful or pus-filled bumps, sores that don’t heal, or changing moles or growths on your scalp, it’s time to book with a board-certified dermatologist. These signs may point to underlying systemic or autoimmune conditions.

Leaders in the field who our clients on the Upper East Side see include:

  • Jerry Shapiro, MD — Professor of Dermatology at NYU School of Medicine; internationally recognized for medical hair and scalp disorders. Phone: (212) 263-5015 | jerryshapiromd.com
  • Marc Avram, MD — Harvard-trained hair loss specialist, Clinical Professor at Weill Cornell. Website: dravram.com
  • Michele Green, MD — Expert in medical and cosmetic hair loss, including autoimmune and hormonal causes. Website: michelegreenmd.com

Some dermatologists are also certified trichologists, offering a blend of medical and holistic approaches for complex scalp issues.
