    accumulation of immune cells around hair follicles

    Perifollicular infiltrate refers to the accumulation of immune cells around hair follicles. This can be a sign of inflammation or an immune response, often seen in conditions like alopecia areata, where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles, leading to hair loss.
