The second part will focus on the most relevant clinical advances from the past year, covering new therapeutic approaches, updated guidelines, and emerging evidence on combination treatments, with particular attention to their practical application in daily dermatological practice.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this session, participants will be able to:
- Summarize the key pathophysiological mechanisms underlying androgenetic alopecia
- Evaluate novel and emerging therapeutic options and their supporting clinical evidence
- Apply evidence-based strategies to optimize treatment outcomes in clinical practice
