    GlossaryTopical Sensitizers

    substances applied to skin to trigger mild allergic reactions

    Topical sensitizers are substances applied to the skin to provoke a mild allergic reaction, which can stimulate hair growth in conditions like alopecia areata. They work by triggering an immune response that may help to restart the hair growth cycle in affected areas.
