There is no effective treatment of alopecia and nowadays there are more than 147 million of people living with alopecia worldwide; 4 million of them live in Russia.
The core motif in the collection’s design is an artwork of the famous Russian avant-gardist Natalia Goncharova «The space», created in 1958. This famous cubo-futuristic experiment is a part of State Tretyakov Gallery’s collection. «The space» represents a cosmic landscape — artist interprets the interrelation of space and time.
