Does dht blocker hair drop really grow back bald spots?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not exactly.: Dht blockers (such as finasteride) will slow down or even reverse balding in men, but localized hair loss (alopecia areata) is not affected by Dht blockers. You'll need local steroid injections for that, from a dermatologist.
