This study found that the 308-nm Excimer laser was effective and safe for treating patchy alopecia areata in children, with hair regrowth observed in 60% of treated scalp patches.

This study found that combining 308-excimer phototherapy with intramuscular triamcinolone acetonide was effective and well tolerated for treating resistant alopecia totalis, showing a 90% overall response rate in the ten patients studied, with the best results observed in younger patients.

This review suggests that 308 nm excimer therapy may offer a well-tolerated non-pharmacologic option for alopecia areata, with more limited evidence for its effectiveness in lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia.

This source evaluates the clinical effectiveness of 308 nm monochromatic excimer phototherapy in treating moderate-to-severe alopecia areata, noting that both laser and lamp methods show promise without significant risks.
