This makes it easy for potential patients to find answers and the care they need and deserve. It was through the website that Anwar’s journey first started with Dr. Sanusi Umar. He filled out the consultation form and started an online correspondence with Dr. Umar about his Folliculitis Decalvans.

The Face-To-Face Meeting
Eventually, Dr. Umar asked Anwar to come in for an in-person evaluation so that he could make a formal diagnosis. During the visit, Dr. Umar carefully examined the lesion on Anwar’s scalp and confirmed that what initially looked like a small, isolated issue was actually part of a much larger skin condition. He explained that the precursor disease leading to Folliculitis Decalvans had already spread across the scalp.

The Importance of an Early Diagnosis
This is one of the most challenging aspects of Folliculitis Decalvans: while it often begins as a small patch of irritation or bumps, the inflammatory process gradually extends to other areas and damages hair follicles along the way. If left untreated, this progression can cause extensive scarring and irreversible hair loss.
Anwar, who has lived with FD for 16 years, presented a complicated case to Dr. Sanusi Umar. He already had a large scalp bump with extensive scarring that would be a challenge to remove. Dr. Umar carefully considered his options and came up with a plan that would help Anwar be free from his FD lesion.
