Alopecia areata of the ears and nostrils following COVID-19 recovery

Alopecia areata involving the hairs of ears and nostrils was never reported in the international literature. We present a case of alopecia areata in these areas in an adult patient. Final diagnosis was based on some factors: a) both the patient’s mother and sister were affected by alopecia areata on the scalp; b) the disappearance of hair on the ears and nostrils some weeks following COVID-19 recovery; c) the disappearance of hair of the lateral portion of the right eyebrow, confirmed by trichoscopy.
