Hair Loss & Alopecia

Alopecia is a partial or complete loss of hair caused by a disruption in the hair development cycle or damage to hair follicles.

What is it?

Hair loss, including alopecia, can stem from genetic predispositions, hormonal fluctuations, infections, aging, and underlying health conditions like eating disorders, thyroid irregularities and diabetes. Alopecia specifically involves an autoimmune reaction prompting the body's immune system to attack hair follicles. This often manifests initially as small, circular bald patches on the scalp, potentially accompanied by itching. Typically, complete hair loss occurs gradually over a span of six months.

At DGC, our specialists serve various communities throughout the Greater Columbus area including Dublin, Columbus, Canal Winchester, Urbana, Circleville, Washington Courthouse, Grove City and Marysville, Ohio and have experience addressing conditions that affect hair loss, such as alopecia. If you're grappling with any form of hair loss, rest assured that our team of board-certified dermatologists have the expertise and resources necessary to assist you.

How is it treated?

Although there isn't a recognized cure for alopecia, our dermatology offices offer innovative dermatologist-created treatments for hair loss, enhancing the likelihood that you can stimulate hair regrowth despite the ineffectiveness of previous treatments. Steroid injections and topical treatments prove to be successful for some patients. The new JAK inhibitor prescription medicines, which target the inflammation leading to hair loss, have shown significant efficacy for numerous patients. Our team of dermatologists are skilled in the most advanced treatment methods and can offer treatment plans that fit your needs. Schedule an appointment now to gain more knowledge about hair regrowth solutions from our skilled dermatologists.
