Alopecia is a condition characterized by hair loss, which can occur on any part of the body, including the scalp. This hair loss can be partial or complete, cicatricial (permanent) or noncicatricial (non-permanent), and can occur on any part of the body. Most cases of alopecia begin in childhood, with over 80% of individuals experiencing onset by age 40. The most prevalent form is alopecia areata, an autoimmune disorder that causes rapid hair loss in round patches.
