This study found that in patients with patchy alopecia areata, certain trichoscopic features like upright regrowing hairs and pigtail hairs are positive predictive markers for treatment success.
research Evaluation of SALT score severity in correlation with trichoscopic findings in alopecia areata: a study of 303 patients
This study found that trichoscopy is essential for evaluating the severity of alopecia areata and predicting treatment responses, contributing to more personalized patient management.
research SALT score distribution with ritlecitinib treatment up to 24 months in alopecia areata
In this study, daily treatment with ritlecitinib for up to 24 months led to significant reductions in high-severity alopecia areata SALT scores among patients aged ≥12 years, including those with severe forms such as alopecia totalis and universalis.

5 / 1000+ resultscommunity Has anyone tried castor oil?….
A 25-year-old discusses using castor oil combined with minoxidil for alopecia areata after noticing hair loss. They seek advice on the effectiveness of this treatment.
community Why are there no studies on Topical Vitamin D3 for AGA?
Topical Vitamin D3 may stimulate hair growth and has been used for Alopecia Areata. There is a question about the lack of research on its use for Androgenetic Alopecia (AGA).
community Dutasteride has been nuking me
The user experienced significant hair loss after 9 months of using 0.5mg dutasteride and oral minoxidil, possibly due to alopecia areata. It is advised to consult a doctor for accurate diagnosis and treatment, as dutasteride and finasteride may not be effective.
community 1mg of finasteride/2 sessions of Kenalog injections/ Clobetasol (4 months into treatment)
The user is undergoing treatment for hair loss using finasteride, Kenalog injections, and Clobetasol, along with vitamin D and collagen supplements. They are considering additional treatments like minoxidil and microneedling, and there is discussion about whether the hair loss is due to stress, alopecia areata, or a scarring condition like lichen planopilaris.
community The Real Cause Of Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgenetic alopecia is caused by DHT affecting hair growth. Finasteride and minoxidil are used to manage hair loss by blocking DHT and promoting hair growth.

10 / 801 results- Heard alopecia areata leaves scar-like spots? Some peptides are helping those areas regrow hair. Alopecia areata patches usually still have living follicles. Peptides are being studied as a possible add-on, but the evidence is small and early. See a dermatologist for treatment.
- What makes alopecia areata different from other types of hair loss, and can topical Salicylic acid treatments help regrow the affected areas? Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition, and salicylic acid does not promote hair regrowth.
- Struggling with patchy hair loss like alopecia areata? Baicapil might help by reducing inflammation and reactivating growth. There is no published trial of Baicapil in alopecia areata. The anti-inflammatory and hair-density claims come from the ingredient's manufacturer and from laboratory work on its plant extracts, in people with androgenetic-type hair loss rather than autoimmune patchy hair loss.
- Is bimatoprost effective for people with alopecia areata? Bimatoprost may stimulate hair growth but lacks strong evidence for alopecia areata.
- Could cetirizine help control autoimmune triggers in alopecia areata? No published trial has tested cetirizine in alopecia areata; one registered trial has not reported results. Small trials in pattern hair loss report modest benefit, so any use for alopecia areata is off-label and unproven.
