A member asked:

Can one grow hair at a bald part of one's head?

4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Depends: Whether hair can be regrown depends on what caused the bald area and how long hair has been gone. For non scarring alopecia, there is a chance.

Dr Chuu and another doctor agreed

Yes: Yes but depends on scalp disease. Please see your dermatologist for evaluation and to discuss treatment options.
