Telogen effluvium is of two types acute and chronic.
Hairfall in acute telogen effluvium is reversible. But we need to find out the cause why the hairfall is happening. For that we need to get certain blood test done.
If we don't do anything it can result in chronic telogen effluvium which is only partially reversible.
