Do Bald Patches Grow Back?

If you have recently noticed a bald patch or multiple bald spots, chances are you are wondering if and when the hair will grow back. Unfortunately, the loss of hair can be from many different causes, making it difficult to determine if it is temporary or permanent hair loss. A few causes of temporary hair loss are stress, recent trauma, illness, and medication.

To best determine the cause of your balding, you should see your physician as soon as possible. They will be able to tell you if it is permanent loss or just temporary. If the hair loss is temporary, caused by medical reasons or stress/ trauma, then your physician can likely prescribe medication to treat the condition. If your physician determines your hair loss is permanent you may want to begin looking into the hair restoration options available for you.

If you are interested in FDA approved and effective hair loss solution, or the permanent hair transplantation, Bosley suggests that you set up a free consultation with one of our Bosley Professionals. During this free consultation, our professionals can help guide you to the best hair loss solution and answer any questions you may have.
