Alopecia Areata

An immune condition treated with medical precision.

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system targets the hair follicle, producing smooth, well-defined patches of loss on the scalp, beard or eyebrows. Onset is often sudden and the course can fluctuate.

Alopecia Areata
  • Intralesional corticosteroids
  • Topical immunotherapy
  • Advanced systemic therapy
  • Platelet-rich plasma (PRP)
Understanding

Diagnosed first, treated second.

The follicle is not destroyed, which is why regrowth remains possible. Treatment calms the immune response locally or systemically while the follicle is protected and monitored.

  • 01Intralesional corticosteroids
  • 02Topical immunotherapy
  • 03Advanced systemic therapy
  • 04Platelet-rich plasma (PRP)
  • 05Trichoscopic monitoring
Who it is for
  • Sudden, well-defined patches of loss
  • Personal or family autoimmune history
  • Recurring episodes of patch loss
  • Beard or eyebrow involvement
  • Children and adolescents, with adapted care
Protocol

How the treatment works

A sequence, not a single appointment — each step informs the next.

  1. 01

    Diagnosis

    Trichoscopy and, where required, biopsy distinguish areata from other patch loss.

  2. 02

    Immune assessment

    Thyroid and autoimmune screening establishes the wider clinical picture.

  3. 03

    Targeted therapy

    Intralesional corticosteroids, topical immunotherapy or advanced systemic options as indicated.

  4. 04

    Review

    Patches are photographed and measured to confirm regrowth and guide next steps.

Questions

Frequently asked

Frequently yes — the follicle survives, so regrowth is possible even after complete patch loss.

No. It is an immune-mediated condition and cannot be transmitted.

Injected therapy often shows regrowth within six to twelve weeks.

Relapse is possible. Ongoing review allows early treatment of any new patch.
