Alopecia Areata Treatment

Medical treatment for patchy hair loss.

Overview

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition that causes hair to fall out in small patches. It occurs when the immune system attacks the hair follicles. Dr. Carol Ng offers intralesional steroid injections (Kenalog) to treat alopecia areata. This treatment helps to suppress the immune system's attack on the hair follicles, allowing hair to regrow. Multiple treatments are often required to achieve the best results.
