permanent damage to hair-producing skin structures

Hair Follicle Destruction refers to the permanent damage or elimination of hair follicles, the tiny structures in the skin from which hair grows. This can occur due to various factors such as autoimmune conditions like alopecia areata, physical trauma, certain medical treatments like laser hair removal, or chronic inflammation. Once a hair follicle is destroyed, it cannot produce hair, leading to permanent hair loss in the affected area.
