Hypotrichosis is the term dermatologists use to describe a condition of no hair growth. Unlike alopecia, which describes hair loss where formerly there was hair growth, hypotrichosis describes a situation where there wasn’t any hair growth in the first place.

Hypotrichosis is a common feature of Hallermann-Streiff syndrome as well as others. It can also be used to describe the lack of hair growth due to chemotherapy.
