About Alopecia

Alopecia can be a devastating condition for those who have it. It is defined as a hair loss condition that affects men, women and children. The onset of hair loss is often sudden, random and frequently recurrent.  Whilst it is not damaging to a persons health, psychologically it can destroy their confidence and outlook on life.

The cause of alopecia is not presently known, although it is agreed to be a disease of the autoimmune system. In alopecia the affected hair follicles are mistakenly attacked by a person's own immune system (white blood cells) resulting in the arrest of the anagen (hair growth) stage and move to the telogen (resting) phase, where the hairs abruptly shed. For more information please go to the Alopecia UK website: http://www.alopeciaonline.org.uk
