Alopecia Areata Treatment in Hillcrest San Diego
Despite there being no known cure for this type of alopecia, there are ways to manage the loss of hair and/or help it grow back. Among the options are minoxidil, an over-the-counter topical lotion also offered in prescription strength; corticosteroids for immune system suppression; Anthralin, a topical medication that disrupts the immune system and promotes hair growth; and Diphencyprone, a topical medication that disturbs the immune system to stop hair loss and stimulate hair growth. There are also many new topical treatments for alopecia areata that your dermatologist can discuss with you. We realize the impact that gradual hair loss can have on both appearance and self-esteem.
