FAQs About Alopecia Treatment

Alopecia is a medical condition and treatment is covered by OHIP.

This condition is treated by topical creams or ointments but sometimes steroid injections into the affected areas is also used. In the case of steroid injection there is some minor pinprick discomfort but generally speaking the vast majority of patients tolerate the injections.

We treat the condition called Alopecia areata where there is a well defined hairless patch. We treat this on the scalp and in the beard area.

With topical steroid creams and ointments results can be seen within weeks two months. Injection of steroid into the hairless patches is generally quicker and results can be seen within four to six weeks.

You may need one to two treatments or more for steroid injections. These are done at six-to-eight-week intervals. You can continue the steroid injections until you are satisfied. Most patients only need 1-2 treatments.

Yes you can combine alopecia treatment with other therapies. For example, you can use PRP (platelet rich plasma) treatment for hair restoration combined with steroid injections. However PRP treatment can only be done at least a month after the last steroid injection.
