Alopecia Areata is a form of hair loss characterized by patchy hair loss affecting any hair bearing area of the body, particularly the scalp and beard. The hair usually falls out, resulting in totally smooth, round patches about the size of a coin or larger. It can, though rare, result in complete loss of scalp and body hair. Patches of hair loss occurs unexpectedly and may regrow without any intervention. The cause of hair loss is related the immune system attack on the hair follicles resulting in shedding of hair in these areas. This disease may affect children or adults of any age.

This form of hair loss occurs in 1-2 % of the population, one time in their life. Bad prognostic factors include: early age of onset, involvement of the back of the scalp, large area of involvement and history of other autoimmune diseases. Apart from the hair loss, affected persons are generally in excellent health. Alopecia Areata patches usually resolve on their own, but can be accelerated to regrow with monthly steroid injections by a physician or topical Minoxidil.
