Clinical Evaluation for Alopecia Areata
Patchy hair loss (Alopecia Areata) is an autoimmune condition where the immune system mistakenly targets active hair follicles, leading to coin-sized smooth bald patches on the scalp, beard, or eyebrows.
Understanding Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata can appear suddenly and may progress, stabilize, or recur over time. Because hair follicles remain alive beneath the scalp surface, appropriate medical intervention can reactivate hair growth in affected patches.
Clinical Treatment Options
Intralesional Immunomodulatory / Steroid Injections
Targeted micro-injections into affected bald patches suppress localized follicular inflammation and stimulate dormant roots to restart anagen growth.
GFC & PRP Regenerative Therapy
Concentrated growth factor infusions support tissue repair and follicular stimulation in stabilizing patches.
Phototherapy & Topical Immunotherapy
Controlled light therapy or medical topicals are evaluated based on patch extent and progression rate.
Gender-Specific Manifestations
Alopecia Areata can affect both men and women. In men, patches may also present in the beard area (Alopecia Barbae). Early clinical diagnosis ensures timely intervention before patches expand.
