Alopecia areata, also known as spot baldness, is an autoimmune disease in which hair is lost from some or all areas of the body. Small spots most commonly occur on the scalp and usually grow back within a year. A very small percentage of cases spread to the entire scalp (alopecia totalis) or to the entire body (alopecia universalis).
