Alopecia / Hair Disorders

Hair loss has many causes — genetic pattern loss, autoimmune alopecia areata, telogen effluvium after illness or stress, scarring alopecias, and traction from styling. Each behaves differently and responds to different treatment.

Accurate diagnosis matters, and may involve scalp examination, trichoscopy, blood work, or a small scalp biopsy. Treatments range from topical and oral medications to intralesional injections, supplements, and platelet-rich plasma.
