###Human: Is there a treatment for hair loss on temples from wearing tight braids? ###Assistant: Hello. This is traction alopecia. It is a type of alopecia due to tight braids and hairstyles that put pressure over the roots. Unfortunately due to pressure effects scarring occur and there is no such topical cream or lotion available for regrowth of hair. You have told that you are using Rogaine (Minoxidil) without effects and so, the only option left is transplantation. You can also try PRP (platelet-rich plasma) in this area along with Minoxidil spray. It can give you good results.
