Hair loss Patches on head
From last 2 months my daughter is suffering with hair loss (approx 0.25" to 1") patches on head ( lies bald) from last 2 weeks increasing patches now almost 30-35 patches on head
Present useing morning ointment is "LOBATE"and night time useing "TAKFA FORTE" ointment.
We consulted 3 doctors and Doctor suggested "KENACORT" injunctions on effected area. But, it is almost 35 places how can they give somany places. So, We are in confusion.
Kindly suggest best treatment and specialised Doctor in Bangalore.
Please find attachment of effected area patches photos.
Thanking you

This is alopecia areata. this is an autoimmune condition due to the attack of lymphocytes against hair roots. It results in the formation of bald patches on the scalp. It can affect any hairy area of the body also like eyebrows and beard. It has to be treated properly for long duration until the immunity comes down. Once the immunity is controlled, hair grows back over the patches. Please call me or contact me using online consult option for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
