July 2026 in “Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery” This study compared the efficacy and safety of intralesional Vitamin D3 injections to intralesional triamcinolone acetonide (TAC) in 80 patients with patch-type alopecia areata. Over 12 weeks, both treatments showed gradual hair regrowth, with success rates of 75% for Vitamin D3 and 55% for TAC, though the difference was not statistically significant. Recurrence rates were similar, and adverse effects were minimal, with Vitamin D3 causing mild erythema/irritation and TAC causing localized pain and atrophy. The study concludes that Vitamin D3 is a comparably effective and potentially safer alternative to TAC, especially for patients at risk of corticosteroid-related side effects.
