I decided to become a dermatologist because of the need for doctors who specialize in managing skin and hair conditions that affect people who have black and brown skin. I provide comprehensive care to adults. I manage different types of hair loss, including central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, which destroys hair follicles and causes scarring. This condition can lead to permanent hair loss on the crown, the top part of the scalp. I also care for people who have traction alopecia, which is caused by hairstyles that tightly pull hair.
