This article discusses frontal fibrosing alopecia as a type of Lichen planopilaris marked by gradual hair loss at the front of the scalp but reports no new clinical results.

In this report, the authors suggest that for extensive baldness, the uniform density approach in hair restoration surgery is less noticeable, especially in situations like wind or exercise.

In this study, TrichoScan characteristics, particularly hair density and terminal hair percentage in the midscalp, were found to predictively classify female pattern hair loss in a Chinese population.

This case report details a 65-year-old woman with a slowly enlarging plaque of alopecia on her frontal scalp, which was mildly indurated and slightly erythematous with overlying telangiectasias.

Various surgical methods for hair restoration, like scalp reconstruction and tissue expansion, have been developed, but follicular unit transplant remains the most common procedure for correcting pattern baldness.

This case report highlights that early signs like pili torti may precede lichen planopilaris in some patients, emphasizing the importance of timely intervention to prevent permanent hair loss.

This study found that androgenetic alopecia may involve a defect in the conversion of hair follicle stem cells to progenitor cells, as demonstrated by a reduced presence of progenitor cells in bald scalp samples.

This study describes a method to safely guard needles used in comedone extraction and scalp procedures during hair transplantation, aiming to prevent deep injuries and reduce patient fear.
