Alopecia

Alopecia is an autoimmune disorder that can affect people of all ages, including many in Birmingham. The immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles, resulting in patchy hair loss. While it can be unpredictable, some people may experience regrowth, while others may have persistent hair loss.

• Causes: The body’s immune system attacking hair follicles, often triggered by stress or other health conditions.
• Symptoms: Sudden patchy hair loss on the scalp, beard, eyebrows, or other body areas. In more severe cases, complete baldness (alopecia totalis) or total body hair loss (alopecia universalis) may occur.
• Treatment Options: At Ultra Hair Clinic in Birmingham, we offer various treatments such as corticosteroid injections, PRP therapy, and topical medications. Our specialists also provide emotional support and customised hair restoration systems for those seeking cosmetic solutions.
