Abstract
Alopecia areata (OA) is the most common cause of hair loss, occurring in approximately 4.5 million people. The incidence of OA in the structure of dermatological diseases is approximately 2.1 %. Promising in terms of the treatment of alopecia is low-intensity laser therapy and cell technology.
Material and methods. The clinical study involved 98 patients with a verified diagnosis of focal alopecia (OA). Among them, 53 (53.9 %) women and 45 (46.1 %) men aged 18 to 52 years. Patients received combination therapy, including laser plasma therapy for lesions and percutaneous laser irradiation of blood.
Results. The use of combined laser therapy in patients with focal alopecia promotes the relief of inflammation in the foci, the growth of core hair and the restoration of trace elements, according to dermatoscopy, phototrichogram and biochemical studies of hair composition.
