Alopecia

WHAT IS ALOPECIA?

Alopecia Areata is baldness in spots and Alopecia Totalis is total hair loss. Macrophages (the body’s white blood cells) attack the cells in the hair follicles. Sometimes, the hair can regrow because the stem cells are not besieged by the macrophages, other times it results in permanent hair loss. There is usually some reason for an outbreak; be it stress, a virus, a severe illness, or certain hormonal disorders.

WHAT TREATMENTS HELP INDIVIDUALS WITH ALOPECIA?

Many individuals that lack natural eyebrows, or eye lashes, have microblading or the powder eyebrow treatment, or permanent eyeliner for eyelash loss. These procedures help provide them with facial features that represents wholeness. Others will have scalp pigmentation performed in areas of the scalp that is thinning, bald, or to disguise a surface scar. Both of these procedures have benefited men and women.
