posted by HairSite Admin, 19.12.2008, 08:03

Scalp biopsy findings in AGA

• Normal total number of follicles (about 35 in Caucasians or 20 in African
Americans per 4-mm plug)
• Reduced number of hairs (mixture of terminal and indeterminate) when
counted at the dermal/fat junction
• Increased numbers and percentage of vellus and indeterminate hairs when
counted at the level of the upper dermis
• Presence of fibrous ‘streamers’ below miniaturized hairs
• Slightly increased telogen count compared with ‘unaffected’ scalp
• Uninvolved scalp (e.g., occiput) appears normal or relatively normal
