Description

The invention relates to medicine, namely to pediatrics, and can be used in dermatology in the treatment of alopecia in children.

Alopecia is a complete or partial loss of hair on the head, less often on other parts of the body. The causes of alopecia are diverse and poorly understood. Among the children's population there is an increase in this disease.

An analogue of the method of treating alopecia in children is the use of mesotherapy in combination with vitamins, trace elements, biogenic stimulants, finateride, minoxidil. On the scalp, 6-8 microinjections of active substances are administered daily into the problem area, then 1 time per week (4-6 procedures), followed by maintenance therapy 1 session per month (Ryabova V.V., Chermnykh T.V., Koshkin SV Experience of the use of mesotherapy in the treatment of alopecia. Kirov. - 2009. - www.dermatoloqy.ru).

The above analogue of the treatment of alopecia is invasive and not very effective for children, traumatic - microinjections of active substances into the problem area are administered intradermally daily. The drugs proposed in the analogue (finateride, minoxidil) have many side effects, they can be used only from the age of 18 and in patients with androgen-dependent alopecia.

The closest technical solution for the combination of essential features is a method for the complex treatment of alopecia, including taking vitamins, injections of aloe juice, UV radiation, massage or cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen of the affected area, as well as ointments and creams containing irritating substances (Putintseva O.V., Artyukhova V.G., Kolomytseva M.P. Treatment, baldness, recovery .-- 1980. - www.blaqoyest-med.ru/lec.shtml. - p.1-3). It is believed that these funds improve blood circulation and, thus, provide increased nutrition and metabolism in the skin. However, after a short expansion of the capillaries, a longer narrowing of the vessels occurs.

The disadvantage of this method of treatment is that its effectiveness is relatively low, since there is a slow hair growth and relapse of baldness. In addition, the use of glucocorticosteroids, both local and general, is contraindicated in children and adolescents. The growth of sick children with alopecia noted in recent years and the insignificant effectiveness of the currently used methods of treatment make us search for new therapeutic methods of treatment.

Tasks:

1. Improve the microcirculation of the blood of the scalp and restore their growth.

2. To activate the redox processes of the hair follicles.

3. Improve trophism of hair follicles.

4. Increase the activity of the immune system.

Effect: the application of the proposed method avoids side effects and complications. The method used improves microcirculation, activation of redox processes, nutrition of the hair follicles allows you to accelerate reparative processes, increase the activity of the immune system and thereby solve the problem of hair restoration in a shorter time.

The essence of the invention: for 10-15 days, every day, once a physiotherapeutic effect on the scalp and collar zone is carried out using ultratone at a current power of 22 kHz: the first three days for 7-10 minutes, then up to 15 minutes, simultaneously daily massage of the collar zone and scalp, treatment courses 3 times a year with equal intervals, and against the background of physiotherapy 2-3 times a year, and continue to administer drugs: vetoron in an age dose 3 times a day for 3 weeks, Multi-tab Immuno Kids for children from 4 to 12 years old or Multi-tab Immuno plus for children from 12 to 18 years old, 1 capsule 1 time per day for 1 month, phenibut in an age-related dosage for one month, propolis 2 drops for a year of life for 2 months, 1 mg or 10 mg of lycopide depending on age, 1 time per day for 14 days, cavinton in an age dosage, 3 times a day for 1 month, also daily during the entire course of treatment conduct physiotherapy exercises aimed at improving blood supply to the scalp s 5 minutes in the morning, and during the treatment of head wash means, without chemical additives, and then washed with hellebore water, thus make recommendations to child during treatment does not wear a hat in the rain to walk without an umbrella, not come into contact with animals and birds.

The method was tested for 6 years for 107 school-age children (boys - 61, girls - 46) with various forms and stages of alopecia. The skin of the head, collar zone and neck is affected by a supratonal frequency current (22 kHz, 3-5 kV) with a glass electrode from an ultratone apparatus.

A method of treating alopecia in children is as follows.

Eliminate the causes of hair loss and concomitant diseases by a complex effect: first, the hair is washed with baby soap, then washed with helical water. Eat foods rich in vitamins, minerals, salts (regularly fresh fruits, vegetables, berries, herbs). Against this background, children for 10-15 days, daily, once carry out a physiotherapeutic effect on the scalp and collar zone using ultratone at a current power of 22 kHz: the first three days for 7-10 minutes, then up to 15 minutes, at the same time daily massage of the collar zone and scalp, treatment courses 3 times a year with equal intervals, and against the background of physiotherapy 2-3 times a year and continue to administer drugs: vetoron in an age dose 3 times a day for 3 week eh, Multi-tabs Immuno Kids for children from 4 to 12 years old or Multi-tabs Immuno plus for children from 12 to 18 years old, 1 capsule 1 time per day for 1 month, phenibut in an age dosage for one month, propolis 2 drops for a year of life for 2 months, 1 mg or 10 mg of lycopide, depending on age, 1 time per day for 14 days, cavinton at an age dosage 3 times a day for 1 month, also treat daily physical education aimed at improving blood supply to the scalp for 5 m chickpeas in the morning, and during the treatment of head wash means, without chemical additives, and then washed with water, hellebore, and the recommendations given to child during treatment does not wear a hat in the rain without an umbrella to walk without contact with animals and birds.

Drug therapy, provided that it is repeated 2 times a year in combination with the proposed physiotherapy, provides a stable remission or complete cure.
