Diffuse alopecia often goes unnoticed until it becomes advanced. Unlike other types of hair loss, it doesn’t follow a clear pattern — instead, hair thins across the entire scalp. This makes it a complex condition to diagnose and treat, as it can be mistaken for temporary shedding or other scalp issues.
⚠️ Without proper evaluation, diffuse alopecia can progress silently, leaving fewer options for effective treatment.
At Clínica de Freitas, we approach each case with precision. A hair transplant in a patient with diffuse alopecia requires careful planning and an expert eye, since the donor and recipient areas may both be affected. After a thorough diagnosis, our team ensures that every step of the procedure is tailored to the patient’s specific condition 👨🏻⚕️
Key aspects we carefully evaluate in diffuse alopecia cases:
✨ Accurate diagnosis – distinguishing diffuse alopecia from temporary shedding (telogen effluvium) is essential.
✨ Donor area stability – ensuring grafts are harvested only from safe zones.
✨ Progression control – combining surgery with medical treatments to stabilize ongoing loss.
✨ Natural density – designing a result that looks consistent across the scalp, not just in isolated zones.
✨ Long-term follow-up – monitoring the evolution to maintain results and adapt treatments.
The case you see here is an example: a patient with diffuse alopecia treated at our clinic. After 12 months of post-operative evolution, the transformation is clear — a natural, dense, and lasting result achieved through meticulous planning and ex*****on.
Because in diffuse alopecia, every detail matters.
