types of alopecia
Androgenetic Alopecia

Androgenetic Alopecia is the most common hair loss, affecting more than 50 million men and 30 million women. In men, this condition is also known as male-pattern baldness. Hair is lost in a well-defined pattern, beginning above both temples. In women, it’s sometimes referred to as female pattern baldness. There’s no known cure for it currently. However, there are medically proven ways to prevent and control the symptoms of androgenetic alopecia, and even grow back some hair. The goals for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia involve increasing hair growth and stopping the progression of hair thinning. 

Alopecia Totalis

In these cases, hair loss happens very quickly, with clumps coming out each day. You might find yourself scared and embarrassed, but don’t wait to reach out. We will work with you to determine the right approach to get your confidence back.

Alopecia Universalis

This uncommon disorder results in complete hair loss throughout the body.

Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia

This uncommon type of alopecia tends to appear in women with African heritage. Hair follicles are replaced with scar tissue, resulting in permanent hair loss. Early detection is key to prevent the loss from being irreversible. 

Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia

This uncommon type of alopecia tends to appear in women with African heritage. Hair follicles are replaced with scar tissue, resulting in permanent hair loss. Early detection is key to prevent the loss from being irreversible. 

Lichen Planopilaris

This inflammatory autoimmune disease is hard to diagnose because the pattern is similar to other types of alopecia. Hair follicles are mistakenly attacked by the immune system and replaced with scar tissue.
