Causes of NON - SCARRING & SCARRING ALOPECIA (Hair Loss) - MNEMONIC

Causes of Hair loss are classified into scarring and non-scarring conditions.  

  • In non-scarring alopecia, hair follicles are preserved hence there is potential for hair regrowth.
  • In scarring alopecia, the hair follicle is irreversibly destroyed due to destruction of stem cells and replaced by fibrous scar tissue, leading to permanent hair loss.
