The procedure

What does it involve this treatment?

Here's how ringworm is treated: A topical and oral antifungal regimen with trichological monitoring to eliminate the infection.

Ringworm is an infection caused by dermatophyte fungi that can affect the scalp, skin, and nails. On the scalp, they cause scaling, itching, and patches of hair loss, and are more common in children; on the skin, they cause red, ring-shaped patches with an active border; and on the nails, they cause thickening and brittleness. The diagnosis is made through clinical examination, and complementary tests are requested as needed. The treatment protocol combines antifungal shampoos and lotions with supervised oral medication when the infection is extensive or involves the hair follicle. Follow-up allows us to verify that the fungus has been eliminated and that the hair and skin have fully recovered.

Technology used: Trichoscopy, antifungal shampoos and lotions, supervised oral medication, and examination using a Wood's lamp.

Frequently Asked Questions

We resolve your doubts before booking your first appointment with our team.

Hair usually begins to regrow between 3 and 6 months after the fungal infection has been treated, depending on the extent of the affected areas.

It is not necessary during the active phase. First, the fungus is eliminated, and then, if there are persistent areas of hair loss, the specialist evaluates hair regrowth treatments.

Mesotherapy is not routinely used in the treatment of ringworm, as treatment is topical and oral. It is an outpatient procedure that is painless and requires no recovery time.

Yes, if you complete the antifungal treatment and follow proper hygiene practices, ringworm will clear up and usually does not recur. Preventing the spread of the infection is key.

The standard protocol consists of 3 follow-up visits, supplemented by the daily topical and oral treatment prescribed for each case.

The cause of ringworm varies from person to person and can only be confirmed through a medical evaluation. Schedule your evaluation in Chapinero, Bogot�, to identify the cause and determine the appropriate treatment for your case.

It depends on the type and cause. Many skin conditions are controlled with medical treatment and continuous follow-up; an accurate diagnosis defines the strategy, and that is determined in an in-person consultation.

If symptoms persist, change or affect your quality of life, it is recommended to consult a dermatologist for a timely diagnosis and a personalized management plan.

Transmissibility depends on the specific condition and its origin. Only a medical evaluation can determine it with certainty; that is why we invite you to an in-person assessment with our team.
