    Glossary Permanent Alopecia

    permanent hair loss due to damaged or destroyed hair follicles

    Permanent Alopecia, also known as irreversible alopecia or permanent hair loss, refers to the long-term or lifelong loss of hair from the scalp or other parts of the body. This condition can result from various causes, including genetic factors (such as androgenetic alopecia), scarring from injuries or medical treatments (like radiation therapy), and certain autoimmune diseases (such as alopecia areata that progresses to a scarring form). Unlike temporary hair loss, the hair follicles in permanent alopecia are often damaged or destroyed, making regrowth impossible.
