The average scalp contains about 100,000 to 150,000 hair. The normal hair life cycle lasts for 2 to 3 years. At any given point of time, about 90% of the hair on your scalp is growing and about 10% of the hair is in a resting phase. After 2-3 months, the resting hair is shed and new hair starts to grow in its place. It is normal to shed some hair every day. You lose roughly 100 hair strands every day. But, some people may experience more than normal hair loss. Partial or complete loss of hair is called alopecia. There are few types of alopecia, with different areas where is presented.
Alopecia Incognita , also known as diffuse alopecia areata, is a rare form of alopecia areata described predominantly in young women. In cases of alopecia areata incognita, the typical patchy distribution of hair loss in classical alopecia areata is absent, but abrupt and intense hair loss is characteristic. While the clinical picture presented by this disease closely resembles that of telogen effluvium , specific clinical and dermoscopic findings of alopecia areata are invariably present along the disease course.
There are a number of reasons why men start to go bald, but if you are a man between the ages of about 20 to 45 and you start to lose scalp hair, then the chances are 95 per cent certain that you are experiencing male pattern baldness. As the term suggests, male pattern baldness follows a typical sequence or pattern. Hair loss can start in different areas but is usually at the temples and/or on the crown of the head. Initial thinning of hair progresses over a number of years and may lead to total baldness but more typically loss of hair over the top surface of the head.
Two types of genetic hair loss in men, diffuse hair loss and diffuse unpatterned alopecia, pose a significant challenge both in diagnosis and in patient management. Understanding these conditions is crucial to the evaluation of hair loss in both men and women, particularly those that are young when the diagnoses may be easily missed.
Diffuse Patterned Alopecia (DPA) is an androgenetic alopecia manifested as diffuse thinning in the front, top and crown, with a stable permanent zone. Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) is also androgenetic, but lacks a stable permanent zone and affects men much less often than DPA. Difference between DPA and DUPA is very important because DPA patients often make good transplant candidates, whereas DUPA patients almost never do, as they eventually have extensive hair loss without a stable zone for harvesting.
Specialist physicians in "Marbo Hair" dermatology wards performed over 15,000 screenings of patients who suffered from various types of alopecia. The patients included adults and children and physicians monitored the effect of the Marbo products – Activator, Lotion and Shampoo. The results demonstrated that Marbo Activator is one of the most effective natural hair care products for growing new hair and that its effect is the fastest when applied together with Lotion and Shampoo. The Marbo Hair products earned patients’ trust because of their quality and effects. Marbo products are current the only natural products for hair growth prescribed by physicians.

Autoimmune Skin Disease – Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata is a highly unpredictable, autoimmune skin disease that may lead to the loss of hair on the scalp and elsewhere on the body. This disease affects males and females of all ages and races, but it often begins in childhood. This disease affects approximately 2 percent of the population, or about 4.5 million people in the United States alone.
The exact cause of Alopecia is unknown. It is thought that a combination of genes predisposes certain people to this disease, and some trigger-or possibly the confluence of several things-sets the disease off. The immune system then mistakenly attacks hair follicles, which shrink in size, arresting visible hair production.
Hair loss could also occur by mechanical means. One of them is caused by habit, like pulling hair unconsciously from the scalp when watching television or during inactivity. Another is from the use of cosmetics like hair dyes and other hair treatment products. It could also be caused by too tight a ponytail or other hairstyles that pull the hair. Iron deficiency could also cause Alopecia, chemotherapy treatment is the most common cause of hair loss in people suffering from malignancies. Treatment for alopecia seen in these examples is simply removal of the offending causes.
Many doctors treat alopecia areata with minoxidil. An alternative to minoxidil is diphencyprone (DPC), a chemical also used in developing film. Workers that were developing films for a longer period found that it caused hair to sprout in unwanted places if they failed to wash after using it. While DCP is not a prescription drug, it is in no way a natural treatment, and applying it requires the use of protective garments and special ventilation under professional supervision.
The advantage of DCP is that hair does not fall out immediately when treatment is discontinued, as is the case with minoxidil. In Alopecia universalis (total hair loss), DCP produces cosmetically acceptable results only about 17 percent of the time, but when hair loss is less than 50 percent, DCP is 100 percent effective. Hair typically begins to reappear after 3 months of treatment, but it is sometimes necessary to take the drug for as long as 2 years before hair regrowth occurs.
When hair loss is less than 50 percent, hair restoration typically takes about 10 months. Side effects are common, including blistering (45 percent of users), freckling (12 percent), vitiligo (2 percent), and swollen lymph glands (2 percent). Hair that grows back during DCP treatment usually lasts 2-3 years before resumption of treatment is necessary. DCP must be applied weekly to be effective. It is available from dermatologists.
Marbo hair growth shampoo contains herbal ingredients from different medicinal herbs. Active ingredients full of vitamins and mineral salts stimulate local circulation and hair root renewal. Sage and rosemary extracts regulate sebum secretion, prevent scalp greasing and soothe scalp itching and irritation. The results clearly demonstrated that Marbo Activator is one of the most effective natural hair care products for growing new hair and that its effect is the fastest when applied together with Lotion and Shampoo.

Vrste Alopecije
Vrste Alopecije
Kosa je vazan deo identiteta svakog od nas, tako da svaka vrsta bolesti nkose ili opadanja kose ima velike psiholoski uticaj ali psiholoski uticaj takodje. Povlacenje u sebe, gubitak samopouzdanja samo su neki od ovih uticaja usled gubljenja kose. Najcesci oblik bolesti kose je perut, koju smo sigurno svi iskusili u svojim zivotima. Jedno od takodje cestih oboljenja kose je i alopecia.
Gubitak kose naziha se alopecia. Zastupljen je kod muskaraca i zena podjednako. Moze se javiti u bilo kom zivotnom dobu. Gubitak vlasi kose dakle prouzrukuje celavost. Moze se razviti na bilo kojoj regiji koze: obrvama, trepavicama, bradi, brkovima, telu, rukama ili nogama, a izuzetno istovremeno na svim, što uzrokuje razvoj univerzalne alopecie.
Postoji vise oblika alopecija ali u ovom kratkom tekstu pomenucemo smo neke od oblika.
Androgena alopecija – je opadanje kose kod muskaraca u zrelim godinama Zivota. Naziva se jos I muska celavost. Kosa se najbrze gubi na temenu glave. Smatra se da genetska predispozicija igra vaznu ulogu kod androgene alopecije. Jedna od opcija pri tretmanu ovog oblika alopecije je blokada enzima 5-alfa-reduktaze.
Seboreična alopecija – je pojacano opadanje kose u pubertetu. Javlja se i jaka masnoca koze i vlasista narocito na temenu glave.
Alopecia areata – je kruzno opadanje kose ili gubitak kose na pecate. Najcesce velicine nokta. Takodje uzroke alopecije areate mnogi dermatolozi traze u genskoj predodredjenosti tj. u naslednom faktoru. (neki autori nasli su pozitivnu porodičnu anamnezu u cak 27% svih pacijenata sa alopecijom areatom, a neki familijarnu disponiranost negiraju.) Oko 3 % ukupne populacije svih starosnih doba pogodjen je ovim oblikom opadanja kose. Moze se pojaviti bez predhodnog upozorenja. Uzrok alopecia areate moze biti neka autoimuna bolest, tiroidna zlezda ali I veliki psihicki stress. Pusenje, losa ishrana I nacin zivota takodje mogu da prouzrukuju alopecia areatu. Sve u nasem telu je povezano i samo promenom nacina zivota mozemo pozitivno uticati na opadanje kose.
Ne postoji savršen lek koji će u potpunosti zaustaviti gubitak kose . Alopecia Areata ali i drugi oblici gubljenja kose se tretiraju putem kortikosteroidne masti, losionima zatim aminokiselinom u ampulama, ali i prirodnim preparatima za opadanje kose. Na kraju dolazi i presadjivanje kose koje je i dalje jako skupo ili jeftinija varijanta nosenja perike. Naravno, ovde treba napomenuti da se koriste samo dermatoloski isitani preparati.
Za lecenje alopecia areata potrebno je vreme i strpljenje. U terapijskim mogućnostima žene su u nešto boljem položaju jer lokalno mogu upotrebljavati losione sa estrogenima koji deluju tako, da inhibiraju delovanje 5-alfa-reduktaze. Treba se detaljno upoznati sa sastojcima proizvoda koji primenjujete. Naravno treba se prvo konsultovati sa dertatologom tj. doktorom koji se bavi trihologijom.
Kada govorimo o prirodnim preparatima na trzistu vec dugo vremena postoji Marbo Kosa kolekcija. Marbo Aktivator stimuliše mikrocirkulaciju i fitogenski uticaj u cilju revitalizacije folikula na ogoljenim mestima. Dužina trajanja tretmana zavisi od kliničke slike - prosečno trajanje bilo je oko 2 godine za totalne (maligne) slučajeve alopecie areate. Dugi periodi upotrebe aktivatora nisu rezultirali neželjenim efektima. U pocetku tretmana dlaka je u pocetku tanka i slabo pigmentovana, a kasnije poprima uobičajenu debljinu i boju. Moze se korisriti kod svih oblika opadanja kose, ali mje najbolje rezultate dao kod primene za Alopecia Areata . Za najbolje rezultate koristiti sa Marbo Sanponom i marno Losionom.
