The global alopecia market is expected to reach over USD 11.8 Billion by 2024 according to a new report published by Grand View Research, Inc. The increased healthcare expenditure and the resultant augmentation of healthcare facilities, globally, are the key drivers of the alopecia treatment market. 

Additionally, the increasing awareness amongst individuals pertaining to the availability of the treatment options can be attributed to the favorable initiatives taken by organizations such as the National Alopecia Areata Foundation (NAAF) and the American Hair Loss Association.

International conferences are held by the NAAF for individuals suffering from alopecia, irrespective of their age, furthermore, NAAF also promotes research by bringing together scientists from all over the world. The 31^st National Conference of NAAF will be held in Washington DC from 14^th July to 16^th July, 2016. 

The FDA approval of the Janus kinase inhibitors (JAK) drugs that stimulate the growth of hair follicles with minimal side effects is further expected to boost the alopecia treatment market. The Children Alopecia Project by AHLA is dedicated towards making investments in Children Support Groups, which provide funding for children who cannot afford to attend the NAAF Conference and promote research and development activities in alopecia treatment for children. 

Bald Truth is a radio program that is involved in spreading awareness about the different types of alopecia affecting people and about the varied products used for the effective treatment of alopecia that are currently available in the market. Rapunzel Project is another initiative by AHLA that is dedicated towards preventing hair loss in chemotherapy patients.
