Alopecia areata causes round, smooth bald patches on the scalp, beard or eyebrows, often without warning. It is an autoimmune condition, and early assessment by a dermatologist gives you the most options.
In alopecia areata the immune system attacks hair follicles. The follicles are not destroyed, which is why hair can often regrow with the right treatment.
Patterns such as exclamation-mark hairs and yellow dots help confirm alopecia areata and separate it from other causes.
Thyroid and other tests may be advised, as alopecia areata can occur with other autoimmune conditions.
Treatment for patches may include topical medicines and, in suitable cases, injections into the patch.
Extensive alopecia areata needs a different plan, which your dermatologist will discuss with you.
PRP or GFC may be considered alongside medical treatment in selected patients.
The same condition can affect beard (alopecia barbae) and eyebrows and is treated with a similar approach.
Alopecia areata can be unpredictable. Regular review lets your doctor adjust treatment to how your hair responds.
Dermatologist examines patches, nails and scalp, and records them with photographs.
