Summary

Management of pediatric alopecia is particularly challenging given the chronicity of the condition, limited therapeutic response and devastating psychological effects. There is a paucity of safe and effective therapies in this population.

The investigators propose to conduct and open label, prospective cohort pilot study using topical garlic concentrate ( GarlicRich) for treatment of children with alopecia areata. Study medication will be applied topically on affected area of the skin daily for 6 months. Follow up visits will occur monthly to access the efficacy and safety of the proposed treatment .
