Bald patches may not always cause permanent hair loss

In case you have sudden bald patches on your scalp it may not always mean permanent hair loss. This type of hair loss as a result of this hair problem is known as Alopecia areata. This is a problem which can happen at any age. It usually causes small patches of baldness on the scalp.

Under this hair condition it is likely that people suffering only may lose only a few patches. However some may lose more hair. But only in more rare cases, it causes total loss of hair on the scalp or on the entire body.

In this type of hair loss, the body's immune system mistakenly attacks the hair follicles, for reasons that are not entirely understood, resulting in inflammation and damage to the hair.

Up to 20 per cent of those afflicted with alopecia areata have family members with the same condition. This suggests that genes may play a role. Thus it is believed that certain genes have a link to other autoimmune diseases. In some cases, stress may trigger this problem. Fortunately, the affected hair follicles usually retain the ability to regrow hair and, in most cases, the hair loss is not permanent. However, hair re-growth may often take a long time.

Unfortunately, there is no permanent cure or way to prevent this hair problem. A relapse is quite common. The condition generally has no direct impact on your health and is not contagious. It can however be distressing.

In case you are suffering from this problem you should seek early treatment. To know more about hair loss treatment please visit our website.

How long does it take to recover from eyelid surgery?

Usually patients have a short recovery time after blepharoplasty. Although bruising and swelling is usually worse on the day after surgery, they quickly begin to disappear. 

During the first 48 hours the use of cool compresses can greatly reduce bruising and swelling around the eyes and face. Light activity such as walking will also help speed healing. Thin bandages are usually placed over the incision sites and removed in several days, while the stitches can remain in the skin for about a week. Sometimes self-absorbing stitches are used that do not require removal.

Most people return to normal activities after 7 to 10 days following  blepharoplasty . By 2 weeks after eyelid surgery, the majority of the bruising and swelling will resolve.
