Based on your brief history of “overnight” hair loss in a small limited area of your scalp the most likely diagnosis is alopecia areata, an auto immune disorder. Alopecia areata can be treated with topical or subcutaneous injections of corticosteroids. Hair transplant is not advisable into the area of alopecia areata. As long as the active disease is still present, transplanted hairs will succumb to the same fate as the hairs that were originally in the area.
If you truly developed a bald spot overnight, there is only one diagnosis - alopecia areata. Nevertheless, it's important to see a physician for an up close examination.It is not uncommon for patients to have a spot of hair loss that goes unnoticed for a long time. However, a spot that develops overnight is only one diagnosis - alopecia areata.
I consider important that you visit a dermatologist and based on the diagnosis consider visiting a Hair Specialist Doctor to explore the different treatments that can help you get rid of that bald spot.As mentioned before, maybe you didn't noticed that bald spot before and now it just enlarged. It could also be something that your dermatologist can make regrow with a medical treatment.Best of lucks!
