    GlossaryBald Scalp (Alopecic Scalp)

    hairless area on the head due to hair loss

    A bald scalp refers to the area of the head where hair has been lost, resulting in a smooth, hairless surface. This condition can be caused by various factors, including genetics (as in male or female pattern baldness), medical conditions like alopecia areata, or treatments such as chemotherapy. Understanding the underlying cause is crucial for determining appropriate treatment or management strategies.
