Alopecia areata is often manifested as independent, localized patches of hair loss in the hair area, which are round or oval in shape, with clear edges and a diameter of 1 to 2 cm or larger. The skin in the bald area is smooth and shiny, without any noticeable shrinkage, but pores are still visible. The hair around the damaged area is not easy to fall off, and the roots of the fallen hair become thinner and the hair bulbs shrink, forming an exclamation mark shape "!". If the disease continues to progress, the skin lesions may affect the entire head, and even all the hair may fall off.
