One of my patients came in yesterday to show me the results of my referral and his treatment for alopecia areata. I have included his before pictures and his after pictures below. One treatment reference is included here — Alopecia areata: successful half-side treatment with DNCB.
The treatment on this patient was managed by Clinical Professor of Medicine/Dermatology at UCLA School of Medicine, Dr. Richard Strick, a real expert on the treatment of this disease. Most doctors should not attempt this treatment, as it requires extensive experience with the drug and its dangerous side effects.
Please click the photos to enlarge.

After:
The after photos show only three small balding areas remaining — one on the back and one on the side of the scalp both about 1/2 inch or less in diameter, and one in the middle of his frontal hairline.
Can you tell us how long the DNCB was applied? And how long it was before your client got that terrific regrowth of hair? Thank you.
