Alopecia Areata once considered most difficult to treat dermatological condition has now multiple treatment options.

2007 when I joined Dermatology, we had an admitted Alopecia Universalis patient, we tried our best to help him out-unfortunately we had limited options or none I can safely say at that time.
2025- We have multiple treatment options- Jak1,2- JAK 1 selective which have got wonderful results

These newer medications have drastically changed the way we look at this disease. These medications are for long term and should be taken only after consulting a qualified Dermatologist. They need baseline investigations and constant monitoring of blood counts, lipids

Many more drugs are in phase 3 trials and future seems quite promising🤲🤲❤️❤️🤝🤝

Number of grafts required to cover frontal area loss is 2500 on an average

If somebody tells you 4000, think twice

If you have very high density in donor and age is on favorable side 3000 grafts can be done. But never beyond.

2500 grafts means around 6000 hair as one graft may have one, two, three or even more hair.

Mild degree of baldness is better than an unnatural looking hair transplant

Choose a surgeon who informs about the downsides of hair transplant, not only its benefits

Walk away if you’re kind of lured in to do the procedure.

Hair care products
If you color, relax, straight, keratin your hair you could be damaging your hair over time and this can lead to hair loss.

Remedy: Changing the way you care for your hair helps but if harsh chemicals are used repeatedly it may lead to permanent loss of hair.

Hair style pulls on your scalp:

If you constantly wear your hairstyle tightly pulled back it may lead to loss of hair called medically as Traction Alopecia

Remedy: Never should hair be tied too tightly, keep it little loose and choose a style which doesn’t exert pull over scalp.

Chronic and acute Telogen Effluvium

Few months after childbirth, illness, any stressful event or surgery one may find bunches of hair coming out in hair brush/comb. This is because the hair growth arrest occurs during these events.

Once stressful event is over, the body starts to readjust & hair loss stops. With proper treatment and replenishing of lost stores complete hair growth recovery is possible within 6-9 months.

Hair is great indicator of overall health status of an individual- Better Heath better hair—

Alopecia Areata known as wal khaw in Kashmiri.

Next leading cause of hair loss

Cause: Disease caused when body’s immune cells attack hair follicles. It can affect any body area-scalp, eyebrows, eyelashes, beard and body.

Is treatment available?

Most of the patients have limited disease and respond to topical treatment-some require Intralesional injections.

Some patients develop extensive disease need long term oral medications

Newer treatment options like JAKi have revolutionized treatment of extensive Alopecia Areata.

Disease may recur and proper education
and counseling of patients is important

Role of regenerative therapy in hair loss is growing day by day. Whereas these therapies are minimally invasive and patients love them but we physicians have to make our patients understand pros and cons of these therapies. What’s included in regenerative therapy? List is below.

PRP
GFC
SVF
REGENERA ACTIVA
NANO FAT
MESOTHERAPY

At SIG Trichology event held at Jaipur, regenerative therapies were discussed in detail. And what I can conclude

1, These therapies are effective in early grades of Alopecia.
2, Have to make our patients understand that these are long term therapies.
3, In higher grades of Alopecia these may be ineffective.

There is lot coming up in regenerative therapies in hair loss. What best suits an individual depends on many factors like how severe is hair loss? How does hair loss run in families?

Beard and chest hair for Hair Transplant:

Beard hair is an excellent source of hair to be used for hair restoration after scalp hair. But here are few differences:

1) It’s thicker than scalp hair but mostly exist as single hair which means 2000 grafts from scalp is equal to 3500 grafts from beard as scalp hair exists in 1,2,3,4and5 hair grafts

2) Growing (Anagen) phase of scalp hair is very long as compared to beard hence in beard hair shedding phase occurs more frequently than scalp

3) Beard extraction sites may leave a scar which should be discussed with treating doctor.

4) Chest hair if thick may be used too but 2000scalp grafts=10000 chest grafts.

This reflects the importance of scalp grafts but yes in patients with scarce scalp donor hair beard and chest hair can be used

Why is it important to understand Donor area limitation in hair transplant?

There are 10-12K grafts in Donor area and these have to be used to cover & camouflage 38-40K grafts in recipient area which are at risk of getting lost (in case some one progresses to grade 7 Norwood pattern) and also leave the good number of grafts in the donor area to cover and camouflage it and not make it look patchy.

So each graft counts and should be used judiciously, however certain individuals have good beard and chest hair which can be used but they have their own limitations(to be discussed in next post)
