November 2024 in “Cureus” This case report highlights a rare instance of dissecting cellulitis (DC) occurring after follicular unit extraction (FUE) in a 34-year-old male with a history of androgenetic alopecia and acne. DC is a chronic inflammatory condition that can lead to scarring alopecia if untreated. The patient was successfully treated with isotretinoin, dutasteride, intralesional steroid injections, and salicylic acid-based shampoo, showing significant improvement after four months. The report emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and personalized treatment to prevent irreversible damage, particularly in patients with severe inflammatory acne considering FUE. The findings suggest that dutasteride may be effective in managing DC and reducing the risk of this complication post-hair transplantation.
