autoimmune disorder causing patchy hair loss

learn Tofacitinib

a JAK inhibitor for alopecia areata and other autoimmune conditions

learn Baricitinib

JAK inhibitor that reduces inflammation and immune attacks on hair follicles, leading to potential hair regrowth, especially in alopecia areata cases

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 TDM-105795

What types of alopecia or hair loss conditions might TDM-105795 be designed to target based on current research? TDM-105795 may target non-scarring alopecia, particularly androgenetic alopecia.

learn procapil

Tried everything and still getting bald patches? Procapil may help calm the immune response Procapil is a cosmetic ingredient complex; laboratory studies of its individual ingredients report anti-inflammatory effects, but no published clinical trial has tested it in alopecia areata or any other immune-related hair loss. Spreading bald patches should be assessed by a dermatologist.

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.
