This case report describes a 66-year-old man with frontal fibrosing alopecia, a rare lichen planopilaris variant, presenting with scarring alopecia at the hairline and extensive body hair loss.

This study observed that in vitro treatment of male frontotemporal scalp hair follicles with 17-β-estradiol stimulated hair shaft generation and hair matrix keratinocyte proliferation, suggesting potential anagen-prolonging effects.

This case report describes an 8-year-old girl who developed fronto-temporal hypertrichosis from 2% minoxidil solution and achieved complete resolution after two Nd:YAG laser hair removal sessions.

This study reviewed 18 postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting frontotemporal hairline recession and eyebrow loss, often treated with steroids, triamcinolone, and other medications.

The authors concluded that total hairline correction, which addresses multiple areas beyond the frontotemporal recess, is more effective in improving aesthetic facial balance for women with M-shaped or rectangular hairlines.

In this case report, a 5-year-old boy presented with an itchy patch of hair loss in the frontotemporal region, with trichoscopy revealing specific hair shaft features, such as black dots and corkscrew hairs.

In this retrospective study, oral minoxidil was found to improve the density of the frontotemporal hairline in 45.1% of patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, with some also experiencing eyebrow and eyelash growth; however, adverse effects such as hypertrichosis were noted in 33.6% of the participants.

This study suggests that prolactin has complex, gender- and location-dependent effects on human hair follicles, promoting hair growth in female frontotemporal scalp areas while inhibiting it in male occipital regions.

This study reports an association between frontal fibrosing alopecia and lupus erythematosus, noting progressive alopecia in the frontotemporal hairline despite treatment with hydroxychloroquine.

In this study, 56% of men meeting specific criteria for hair loss experienced cosmetically acceptable hair growth with 2% topical minoxidil after one year, while frontotemporal hair loss did not improve.

In this study, the duration of epinephrine-induced vasoconstriction in scalp tissue increased with concentration and was longer at the frontotemporal junction compared to the midfrontal area, significantly so at the highest concentration used.

In this open uncontrolled study on microneedling as an adjuvant therapy for frontal fibrosing alopecia, researchers observed stable frontotemporal recession measurements while patients reported improvements in quality of life and a reduction in inflammatory activity parameters.

This case report highlights that frontal fibrosing alopecia can occur in black patients and may resemble androgenetic alopecia, underscoring the importance of considering FFA when diagnosing frontotemporal alopecia in this population.

The document describes a woman with familial Parkinson's disease due to a genetic mutation, showing severe symptoms and poor response to treatment, and suggests finasteride may help reduce symptoms in Tourette syndrome.

This case report describes a 46-year-old man diagnosed with frontal fibrosing alopecia, a condition primarily affecting postmenopausal women, highlighting its rare occurrence in men.

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

Dermoscopy helps diagnose frontal fibrosing alopecia by identifying specific scalp features.

In this case report, a five-year-old girl with a bald patch was diagnosed with congenital triangular alopecia, a localized non-scarring condition that typically remains unchanged and lacks effective treatment.

This case report describes a novel instance of scarring alopecia with features of frontal fibrosing alopecia in a patient with systemic sclerosis, suggesting a potential link between the two conditions not previously reported.

This case report found that intense focused skin tightening ultrasound reduced excessive underarm sweating by nearly 80% in two patients and was associated with temporary side effects like tenderness and redness.

This study reviewed clinical data from 60 patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia and found increasing prevalence and generally poor response to treatment, with the cause remaining unclear.

This article appears to be a table of contents or navigation page for a journal, not presenting any new findings or research results.

In this study, researchers reported a 0.11% occurrence of congenital triangular alopecia, recommending surgical treatment for women but not for men due to later potential development of androgenic 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.

This discussion suggests that acquired progressive kinking of hair in androgen-dependent scalp areas may indicate the early stages of androgenetic alopecia with a poor prognosis, but it offers no new clinical findings.

Topical minoxidil successfully treated temporal triangular alopecia.

This article reviews the use of dermoscopy in distinguishing temporal triangular alopecia from alopecia areata, emphasizing its role in avoiding invasive diagnostics and ineffective treatments; it reports no new clinical findings.

In this case report, a patient with frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planus responded well to treatment with alitretinoin, suggesting a potential therapeutic role for alitretinoin in similar cases.

A male patient developed frontal fibrosing alopecia after antiandrogen therapy for prostate cancer.

This study reports that most cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia did not show significant improvement with available treatments, and effective management remains unproven.
