COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, which rapidly spreads via respiratory droplets and is the cause of the current pandemic. In this alarming situation, it is a delicate matter how to visit patients safely and how to manage their chronic treatments. The aim of this paper is to examine in detail the potential impact on SARS-CoV-2 infection of treatments routinely used in trichology and to provide a useful guide for the therapeutic management of trichological patients in this new COVID-19 era.
