Hair transplantation might work for some people with frontal fibrosing alopecia, but more research is needed.

This study observed that frontal fibrosing alopecia also occurs in men, with clinical features and areas of involvement similar to those seen in women, but often affecting sideburns and facial hair.

This study found that among women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, 100% showed dermoscopic elements suggestive of the condition, with perifollicular erythema often indicating disease activity.

This article discusses the pseudo 'fringe sign' in frontal fibrosing alopecia, highlighting that it is not solely related to traction, and it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses potential therapeutic options for frontal fibrosing alopecia by exploring distinct signaling pathways and cellular players, but reports no new clinical findings and emphasizes the need for further trials.

This review assessed the effectiveness of various treatments for frontal fibrosing alopecia and found that intralesional steroids and 5α-reductase inhibitors showed the most positive outcomes in slowing or halting hair loss, though the lack of placebo-controlled studies and consistent outcome measures limits definitive conclusions.

This study observed that 70.7% of patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia stabilized with treatment, and patients using 0.3% tacrolimus were more likely to stabilize in 3 months compared to other treatments.

Avoiding certain allergens in personal care products may improve symptoms for some patients with lichen planopilaris or frontal fibrosing alopecia.

In this study, researchers observed that follicular damage and stem cell loss in frontal fibrosing alopecia may be mediated by immune attacks at the bulge region, suggesting potential for JAK/STAT-targeting treatments to prevent progression.

This study reports that familial frontal fibrosing alopecia was diagnosed earlier in premenopausal women compared to postmenopausal women, though long-term outcomes remain uncertain without a definitive treatment.

Lack of small, fine hair on the front hairline is a key sign of frontal fibrosing alopecia.

This article presents a case study of a 50-year-old woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia and discusses the role of dermoscopy in differentiating it from other types of alopecia, reporting no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers reported that oral isotretinoin effectively treated facial papules in frontal fibrosing alopecia, with histopathologic findings suggesting the involvement of elastic fibers and sebaceous glands in papule formation beyond perifollicular inflammation.

In this study, trichoscopic examination found distinct hair characteristics for diagnosing eyebrow loss: alopecia areata is marked by features like exclamation mark hairs, while frontal fibrosing alopecia shows dystrophic hairs and distinctive regrowth patterns.

This review discusses the fibrogenic effects of TGFβ1, the regulatory role of PPAR, and the potential involvement of DHEA in frontal fibrosing alopecia, but reports no new clinical results.

This study observed two cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia developing on preexisting vitiligo, suggesting a potential causal link between the two conditions.

This report describes two patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia who developed acute hair loss on their limbs, revealing that the limb alopecia had similar histological features to scalp alopecia.

This correspondence discusses proposed updates to the diagnostic criteria for frontal fibrosing alopecia, emphasizing the importance of differentiating it from other types of alopecia.

This study explores the expression of Snail1 in the fibrotic dermis of postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting a possible link to epithelial-mesenchymal transition.

This study found that high frequency use of sunscreen is associated with frontal fibrosing alopecia among women attending a specialist hair clinic in Australia.

Stopping sunscreen use on the forehead led to hair regrowth in a woman with frontal fibrosing alopecia.

According to this study, systemic retinoids, specifically oral isotretinoin and acitretin, were more effective than finasteride in stabilizing the frontal hairline in female patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, achieving treatment goals in over 70% of cases.

This study observed that combining high-potency steroids with pimecrolimus might effectively stabilize hairline recession in frontal fibrosing alopecia patients.

Woman has discoid lupus, frontal fibrosing, and androgenetic alopecia.

Contact allergies might contribute to frontal fibrosing alopecia.

This case report describes a patient with frontal fibrosing alopecia experiencing significant hair regrowth and reversal of cutaneous atrophy after treatment with the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride.

This review compiles existing data on frontal fibrosing alopecia and highlights the promise of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors as a treatment option, while noting the need for clarity on its cause and progression.

This study observed that frontal fibrosing alopecia is increasingly diagnosed in Italian Caucasian females, often showing premenopausal onset and eyebrow alopecia as an early sign.

This review highlights that frontal fibrosing alopecia’s increasing incidence may involve immune, genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors, yet its pathogenesis remains complex and not fully understood.

This study found that patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia had lower epidermal melanocyte counts and reduced epidermal thickness compared to lichen planopilaris patients and controls, suggesting a link with hypopigmentation.
