Alopecia areata is a skin condition in which hair is lost from scalp or beard region leaving behind patches of hairless areas. It is an autoimmune disease, as hair follicles are attacked by the body's own immune cells.

Watch treatment of alopecia areata (spot baldness) by ILS (intralesional steroid) injections into the scalp. ILS injection used in this case contains a mixture of 2% Lidocaine (Lignocaine) and Triamcinolone Acetonide (synthetic corticosteroid). Lidocaine reduces post-injection pain while Triamcinolone Acetonide suppresses the immune system locally from attacking hair follicles present in that area.
