How Do I Know If I Have
Trichotillomania? Are there any
proven
procedures? Why do they
pull hair?
Although the symptoms range greatly
in severity, location on the body, and response
to treatment, most people with TTM pull enough
hair over a long enough period of time that they
have
bald spots
on their heads, which they go to
great lengths to cover with hairstyles and
custom made hairpieces. The persistence of the
compulsion can vary considerably: For some
people,
overcoming
Trichotillomania
can be as easy as ordering a new
custom made hairpiece; if it is mild and can be
quelled with a bit of extra awareness and
concentration. The Patient
Overcoming TTM
by using a custom made hair piece to
cover their
bald spots
also covers the head so that they
can no longer
pull their hair
and this has been a
proven
procedure for Trich
for some patients. For others, at
times, the urge may be so strong that it makes
thinking of anything else nearly impossible.
Using our procedure correctly will protect the
affected area on the head so the person is not
able to pull.
