Do Corticosteroid Shots Into The Scalp Really Work For Alopecia?

thx

my doctor prescribed momentazole(elocon) for me. After about four weeks of use it seems to have a good result. Need more time to be sure though. If i am not mistaken elocon is corticosteroid. Right?

They definitely helped me. I had Kenalog injections spaced about 4 weeks apart and my patches grew in after about 4-6 months in total

It works for alopecia areata

Same with me. Kenalog shots every month and it grew back in. I took pictures with my phone close up and could see the tiny hairs sprouting everywhere after first series of shots.

Although i was also applying a topical. Clobetasol.
