With chronological aging, hair turns gray. Untimely premature hair graying (PHG) may tremendously influence on cosmesis, self-credibility, and social life of the affected individuals. Consequently, early treatment is required to improve cosmetic appearance. To the best of our knowledge, until today, only one case of PHG is reported in the literature, and it occurred due to iron deficiency and successfully treated with ferrous sulfate. Herein, we delineate a case of PHG in a 14-year-old female treated with the topical formulation of Melitane 5% and oral hair supplements which resulted in boosting improvement in hair color.
随着年龄的增长,头发会变白。过早的白发(PHG)可能会极大地影响受影响个体的美容、自信和社交生活。因此,需要早期治疗以改善美容外观。据我们所知,直到今天,文献中仅报道了一例 PHG,它是由于缺铁引起的,并成功地用硫酸亚铁治疗。在此,我们描述了一例 14 岁女性 PHG 的病例,她使用 Melitane 5%的局部制剂和口服毛发补充剂进行治疗,结果头发颜色得到了改善。
