Abstract: 【Abstract】 In order to achieve treatment goals of maintaining efficacy, reducing recurrence, and improving the life quality of patients, the overall health management targeting scalp diseases is particularly important. Based on Chinese and international guidelines and consensus, relevant literature, and current clinical experience, a group of experts in the field of dermatology and cosmetology developed a Chinese expert consensus on management of scalp health after in-depth discussions. This consensus mainly describes causes and manifestations of scalp diseases, and provides guidance on management measures for scalp health, in the hope of providing a reference for global clinical management of scalp diseases in China.
