Hair loss in women gives significant stress and lowers self-confidence. Aim: To perform videodermoscopic findings in non-scarring alopecia of scalp versus control volunteers. Material and Methods: Total of 140 patients satisfied the study’s inclusion criteria after a general medical examination, scalp examination (including inspection of the hair shaft and root), and hair anchoring and fragility tests. We examined the lesions with a videodermoscopy, took images, and wrote up our findings. Results: The study found that patients averaged 26.85. Onset averaged 25.15 alopecia averaged 10.3 months. Our sample had 87.7% spotty AA. Conclusion: Videodermoscopy is an effective non-invasive tool of considerable potential in dermatological practice.
