Alopecia Areata Alopecia = Hair loss, Areata = patchy o Alopecia is a Latin term meaning hair loss and areata refers to the patchy nature of Fig. 1: Alopecia Areata the hair loss Autoimmune Non-scarring Peak incidence: second and third decades o Lifetime risk of alopecia areata is approximately 2%. It affects children and adults of all skin and hair colours 10-42% (+) family history Exact mechanism responsible for hair loss in alopecia areata remains unclear. Fig. 2: Partial Alopecia It is hypothesized that loss of immune privilege Observed in other areas of the body in anagen hair follicles plays a key role in the pathogenesis, and genetic susceptibility is also thought to contribute Major emotional stress prior to the onset Acute onset Patchy alopecia areata is the most common pattern, producing: o Focal hair loss o Well-demarcated single or several round/oval patches of normal-appearing skin.
