Eco-innovations seek to make significant and demonstrable progress towards a sustainable development by reducing environmental impacts, strengthening resistance to environmental pressures, or making more efficient and responsible use of natural resources. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to find out the attitudes of patients with alopecia to their disease and treatment using active compounds from tree extracts through the Kano model. The results identify the attitudes of patients with the disease to the treatment with the aim of more effective approach to patients in terms of satisfying their needs and adaptation, respectively ecological innovation of products used to treat this disease by using natural resources compared to existing alternatives, supporting the idea of sustainability. From the point of view of patients suffering from this disease, treatments based on active compounds from tree extracts are an essential element of their treatment and their deficit represents potential on the market from an economic, natural and social point of view.
