Patchy alopecia

Patchy alopecia (alopecia areata) presents as one or more smooth, round areas of hair loss. In some cases, hair loss may follow the hairline.

‍

Regrowth can occur, although new hair may initially appear finer or lighter. Patterns may change over time.

‍

As this is a medical condition, diagnosis and treatment sit within medical care. Referral may be recommended where appropriate.

‍

Consultations focus on supportive discussion and structured observation within professional trichology practice.
