About

Suleima Arruda is a leading dermatologist and researcher whose work has significantly advanced the understanding and treatment of hair loss, particularly in women. Her research focuses on the pathophysiology and clinical management of androgenetic alopecia, as well as the broader spectrum of female pattern hair loss. Arruda’s most cited paper, “Medical and procedural treatment of androgenetic alopecia – Where are we?” (2023, 26 citations), provides a comprehensive review of current therapeutic strategies, from topical and oral medications to emerging procedural interventions like platelet-rich plasma and low-level laser therapy. Her earlier work, “Understanding Causes of Hair Loss in Women” (2021, 14 citations), has been instrumental in clarifying the multifactorial etiology of female alopecia, addressing hormonal, genetic, and environmental triggers. Through these contributions, Arruda has helped bridge the gap between clinical research and practical patient care, offering evidence-based guidance for clinicians. Her research is widely cited for its clarity and clinical relevance, making her a trusted voice in trichology. Arruda’s ongoing work continues to shape how dermatologists diagnose and treat hair disorders, improving outcomes for patients worldwide.
