In this study, trichoscopy consistently identified typical findings of frontal fibrosing alopecia, revealing three unusual clinical patterns in 18.4% of patients, which may aid in the differential diagnosis when clinical presentations are atypical.

This case report describes a four-month-old infant with atypical alopecia areata following a cultural head-shaving ritual, who showed improvement with topical triamcinolone treatment, though not full symptom resolution, highlighting the rarity and complexity of managing AA in infants.

In this case study, the authors explored the management of ophiasis, a rare and challenging form of alopecia areata, in a 3-year-old boy using the Unani system of medicine, aiming to provide insights for treatment approaches.

This narrative review suggests that while corticosteroids and Janus kinase inhibitors may be effective for treating ophiasis-pattern alopecia areata in both adults and children, the limited age-specific evidence underscores the need for further research to confirm their efficacy and safety across age groups.

This chapter reviews alopecia areata treatments, highlighting factors like age and disease extent in choosing management strategies, but reports no new clinical findings.
