Cicastricial alopecia

2018-03-15 04:56:37
45 days back I noticed patchy hair fall in my head and consulted dermatologist. As I thoroughly washed my head,he couldn't confirm what kind of scalp it was and gave aquasol,levosiz tabs,coal tar,after a month doctor told that it is cicastricial alopecia and gave sternon lotion, lecope,wysalone tabs. I felt itchy some days back. Now it is not that much and I don't know whether it will be back once after stopping medicine. Can u pls tell me how long will it take to grow back my hair. Pls help

You are suffering from hormonal changes causing Androgenetic alopecia causing hair fall. It's completely stoppable even regrowth of hair is possible with certain medications without any side effects. Treatment depends on the grade of hair loss. So, it's a must for diagnosing which grade, you are in for an effective treatment. Please meet me in my clinic or do direct personal online consultation by sending photos for accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.
