    GlossaryFollicular Destruction

    damage or loss of hair-producing skin structures

    Follicular destruction refers to the damage or complete loss of hair follicles, which are the tiny structures in the skin that produce hair. This can result from various causes, including autoimmune conditions like alopecia areata, physical trauma, infections, or certain medical treatments. Once the follicles are destroyed, they often cannot regenerate, leading to permanent hair loss in the affected areas.
