Actual (reported)The investigators hypothesize that Restylane® could serve as a repair matrix which also maintains IL triamcinolone acetonide concentrations at higher levels for a longer period of time in the skin, giving a more sustained local anti-inflammatory effect and thus, arresting the AA process and promoting hair regrowth. Furthermore, the combination of Restylane® with IL triamcinolone acetonide injections may prevent a common side effect, atrophy. With the prevention of scalp atrophy and the preservation of higher concentrations of triamcinolone acetonide for longer periods of time, patients may see a better clinical response for a longer period of time. Quality of life may improve as the number of clinic visits decreases as would the number of IL corticosteroid injections.

Actual (reported)Change in Alopecia Areata Half Head Severity Score (AAHHSS) at 12 Weeks Compared to Baseline
The primary endpoint of evaluating the efficacy of administration of IL triamcinolone acetonide 10 mg/cc and Restylane® in the management of AA is the alopecia areata half head severity score (AAHHSS) comparing week 12 with baseline hair loss. Four discreet areas of the scalp are examined. The percent of terminal hair loss in each area is measured by visual estimation. Those percent figures are multiplied by the total area on one half of the scalp represented by the four respective areas. 1) Left parietal scalp (18% of area), right parietal scalp (18% of area), frontal scalp (40% of area), and occipital scalp (24% of area). Scores range from 0 to 50, with higher scores indicating more hair loss.
