What is the difference between the trichologist and a dermatologist?
A. The trichologist focuses on the elimination and treatment of causes of a problem, like hair loss. Dermatologists are mainly concerned with treatment of symptoms of a condition, such as hair loss.

Dermatologists use mainly pharmacological medicines.
