Alice’s hair loss issues: very severe Alopecia Areata

Alice, a 24-year-old woman, came to us distressed by extensive hair loss caused by severe alopecia areata combined with telogen effluvium. These conditions had led to widespread thinning and noticeable bald patches, making her feel self-conscious and anxious about her appearance.

Alices’s hair loss treatment plan

We developed an intensive 12-month treatment regimen using 15% Vitastim and 15% Biostim, complemented by regular Follicle Builder treatments. This combination aimed to stimulate dormant follicles, promote healthy regrowth, and manage the excessive shedding caused by the Telogen effluvium. The goal was to reverse the effects of her severe hair loss conditions and restore her hair’s natural density.

Alice’s outcome

After a year of treatment, Alice experienced a full recovery. Her hair density returned to its original fullness, and the previously thinning areas filled in completely. This transformation brought back her hair’s natural health and significantly boosted her confidence, allowing her to feel like herself again.

"I was so scared when I first saw the bald patches. Gary's knowledge and calm approach made all the difference. I have my hair back."

— Alice, Alopecia Areata client

What is Alopecia Areata?

Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune condition in which the immune system mistakenly attacks hair follicles, causing patchy hair loss on the scalp, face, or body. It affects around 2% of the population at some point in their lifetime and can occur at any age, though it often first presents in childhood or early adulthood. Men and women are equally affected. Even when hair is absent, follicles remain alive — meaning regrowth is possible with the right specialist treatment.

“Alopecia Areata can be distressing, but hair follicles are rarely permanently damaged. With the right diagnosis and treatment, significant regrowth is achievable — even in extensive cases.”
