Alopecia Areata is a condition in which there is patchy loss of hair from any part of the head and in fact anywhere in the body. Alopecia Areata often starts as an infection with itching, irritation and dandruff. However the danger is the ability of it to spread like a wild fire through forest. Alopecia Areata can almost overnight develop into 2-3 patches, spread to the body and leading to hair loss from all over. The disease can be broken up into four stages.

Alopecia Areata Treatment in Bangalore depends on the type and cause. The condition can run an erratic course with frequent recurrences and remissions.
