research Alopecia areata predictive score: A new trichoscopy‐based tool to predict treatment outcome in patients with patchy alopecia areata

19 citations , July 2019 in “Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology”

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 The BEARD Score: A Practical Tool to Assess Beard Involvement in Alopecia Areata

1 citations , January 2026 in “International Journal of Dermatology”

The BEARD Score helps assess beard hair loss in alopecia areata for better treatment.

research 125: Individual Severity of Alopecia Tool (SALT) score trajectories of roll-over adolescent patients with alopecia areata (AA) treated with ritlecitinib in the ongoing long-term, open-label, phase 3 ALLEGRO-LT study

March 2025 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology”

research Distribution of SALT Scores with Ritlecitinib Treatment up to 24 months from the ALLEGRO Phase 2b/3 and Long-Term Phase 3 Clinical Studies in Alopecia Areata

November 2024 in “SKIN The Journal of Cutaneous Medicine”

This study found that daily treatment with ritlecitinib 50 mg over 24 months reduced the number of patients in the highest categories of scalp hair loss, with improvements seen in patient responses over time.

Compressed part of research of theory of androgenic/anabolitic balance. AGA h-responders analytic. Theory of physio-metabolitic method of anti AGA treatment

community Compressed part of research of theory of androgenic/anabolitic balance. AGA h-responders analytic. Theory of physio-metabolitic method of anti AGA treatment

in Research 865 upvotes 1 year ago

The treatment for androgenetic alopecia involves using finasteride and minoxidil with intense exercise and cold exposure to boost metabolism and reduce androgenic effects, potentially leading to hair regrowth. This approach may activate biological pathways for improved hair and overall health.

community If You Have DUPA, PLEASE READ THIS: Everyone Should Be Scalp Biopsied

in Research 830 upvotes 2 years ago

Scalp biopsies are crucial for diagnosing hair loss conditions like Diffuse Unpatterned Alopecia (DUPA) and retrograde hair loss, as treatments like finasteride and dutasteride may not be effective if other conditions are present. Combining PPAR-GAMMA agonists with retinoids could improve treatments for conditions like Lichen Planopilaris.

community Study: There is 70x Higher Unconjugated DHT in Feces Compared To Blood Levels in Young Adults - Gut Microbiota Manages DHT Recycling and Metabolism

in Research/Science 194 upvotes 1 year ago

Gut microbiota significantly influences androgen metabolism, impacting hair loss treatments like finasteride. Probiotics, dietary changes, and fecal microbiota transplants may help manage DHT levels and improve hair health.

community Microneedling-induced shedding after 5 months?

in Progress Pictures 22 upvotes 10 months ago

A user experienced significant hair loss after starting microneedling, despite using dutasteride and topical minoxidil. They are advised to consult a doctor as the shedding pattern is unusual and may indicate alopecia areata or other scalp conditions.

community What is this pigmentation around my follicles?

in Chat 29 upvotes 1 year ago

The conversation discusses potential causes of pigmentation around hair follicles, suggesting sebum buildup, autoimmune conditions, or dermatitis. Treatments mentioned include finasteride, dutasteride, and an anti-inflammatory diet, with a recommendation to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis.

learn Tretinoin

the gold standard retinoid in dermatology that's also helpful for hair regrowth alongside Minoxidil

learn Alopecia Areata

autoimmune disorder causing patchy hair loss

learn GHK-Cu

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.

learn Salicylic acid

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.

learn Baicapil

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.

learn Bimatoprost

Is bimatoprost effective for people with alopecia areata? Bimatoprost may stimulate hair growth but lacks strong evidence for alopecia areata.

learn Cetirizine

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.
