Alopecia Areata

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition characterized by sudden hair loss, often in round patches on the scalp or other areas of the body. It occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles, leading to hair fall. While the exact cause remains unclear, factors such as genetics, stress, and environmental triggers may play a role.

In dermatology, treatment options include corticosteroids to reduce inflammation, topical immunotherapy, and minoxidil to stimulate hair growth. For those seeking cosmetic solutions, options like wigs, hairpieces, and scalp micropigmentation can help enhance appearance and boost confidence. Early intervention is crucial, as many individuals experience spontaneous regrowth over time. Collaboration between dermatologists and cosmetologists can provide a holistic approach to managing alopecia areata, addressing both medical and aesthetic concerns.
