It has been postulated that Alopecia Areata (AA) is, at least in part, a neurologically
mediated disease. Research supporting this theory includes the finding that nerves
surrounding the hair follicles are collapsed. We want to take this research a step further
and show that not only are these perifollicular nerves collapsed, but that their function is
also impaired.
