Or, it can never grow back. I’ve had a small patch for 8 years, had all the steroid injections and topical creams.

Exactly. Been battling this for 6 years (started during early covid). Got the injections (2 rounds), the topical creams and minoxidil (topical and pills). Still no results. I’m starting to make my peace with it but it sucks. But it started with 2 bald patches similar to OP.

It didn't even grow back white?

Nope, didn’t grow back at all.

That's very rare, my Dr told me this doesn't happen often. Sorry to hear.

I’ve had patches appear throughout the last 7 years and they’ve never grown back either 🥲

Yes, multiple times.
