Therapeutic Intervention in Lichen Planus Pilaris: Synergy of Low-Level Laser Therapy and Topical Corticosteroid

The study explores the effectiveness of combining low-level laser therapy (LLLT) with topical corticosteroid treatment for Lichen Planopilaris (LPP), a challenging scarring form of alopecia. Due to the patient's renal and hepatic comorbidities, systemic treatments were not viable, leading to a regimen of daily topical corticosteroid and weekly LLLT sessions over 2 months. The treatment resulted in significant improvement, with reduced inflammation and symptoms like itching and burning. The patient continued with an anti-inflammatory tonic and remained in remission 6 months post-treatment, highlighting the potential of this combined therapy approach for managing LPP.
