In this study, 308-nm excimer light therapy showed significant effects in some patients with treatment-resistant alopecia universalis, suggesting it as a potential alternative therapy.

This study found that combining excimer light at 308 nm with tacrolimus 0.1% was more effective in treating alopecia areata of the scalp compared to excimer light alone, as indicated by a greater reduction in the SALT score and better improvement in Treg function.

In this study, both excimer light and low level light therapy were found to be safe and effective for treating alopecia areata, with excimer light showing better and more sustained improvement.

This review found promising evidence for the efficacy of certain laser and light-based therapies in treating various forms of alopecia, such as low-level light therapy for androgenetic alopecia and excimer laser for alopecia areata, but emphasized the need for further understanding of these treatments.

This review assessed evidence on laser therapies for alopecia areata, reporting that the 308-nm excimer laser showed hair regrowth in several studies, while more research is needed for other laser types.
