Alopecia & Hair Loss Consultations in Hampshire
Alopecia is the medical term for hair loss and can affect men, women and children. It may cause gradual thinning, sudden hair shedding or patches of complete hair loss. There are several types of alopecia, each with different causes and treatment options.

Alopecia can appear in several forms, including:

- Alopecia Totalis – Extensive hair loss affecting the entire scalp.
- Alopecia Universalis – Hair loss affecting the scalp and other areas of the body.
- Androgenetic Alopecia – Commonly known as male or female pattern hair loss, resulting in gradual thinning.
- Traction Alopecia – Hair loss caused by repeated tension on the hair follicles, often associated with tight hairstyles.
