This article reports a rare case of a postmenopausal woman with coexisting lichen planus pigmentosus and classic lichen planopilaris, alongside a review of related literature.

This abstract discusses the prevalence and forms of lichen planopilaris, a type of scarring hair loss, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, PDLLA treatment in middle-aged mice was observed to enhance hair growth by increasing macrophage M2 polarization and hair follicle stem cell proliferation, potentially rejuvenating the skin's microenvironment and offering a novel approach for age-related hair loss.

This review discusses the diverse applications of low-level laser therapy in aesthetic dermatology, especially for managing alopecia, but notes that comprehensive literature on its effectiveness is lacking.

This review highlights that platelet-rich plasma and adipose-derived stem cell therapy may offer safe and promising improvements for managing symptoms of genital lichen sclerosus, with a potential synergistic benefit when combined.

This study provides one of the first descriptions of the demographic, clinical, and therapeutic characteristics of lichen planopilaris in Chilean adults, reporting that treatment usually reduced or halted disease progression.

This study found diverse clinical presentations of lichen planopilaris, with classic lichen planopilaris being the most common, highlighting the importance of recognizing this variability for accurate diagnosis.

This report describes two cases where lichen planopilaris compromised hair follicles in both donor and recipient areas after follicular unit transplantation, emphasizing the need for a biopsy if lichen planopilaris is suspected.

In this study, solid lipid microparticles loaded with lidocaine hydrochloride were developed to effectively deliver pain relief and antimicrobial benefits for wound management, demonstrated by testing with bioengineered skin substitutes and showing effectiveness against common wound-infecting bacteria.

This review discusses the role of lysophosphatidic acid in skin physiology and pathology, highlighting its significance in processes like wound healing and hair follicle development, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, researchers suggested that adipose-derived exosomes could be a promising treatment option for lichen planopilaris, particularly in cases resistant to standard therapies, by potentially aiding in symptom management and hair preservation.

Low-Level Laser Therapy can stimulate healing and cell function, potentially leading to wider medical use.

This study observed that PRP treatment resulted in greater improvement in hair thickness and density in alopecia areata patients compared to LLLT, with benefits sustained over 12 weeks.

This case report describes a 48-year-old male with severe, itchy hypertrophic lichen planus who showed a 90% improvement in lesions following 4 months of treatment with oral acitretin, with no recurrence 6 months posttreatment.

This report describes a unique case of linear lichen planus pigmentosus on the face with histological features of lichen planopilaris, which has not been documented before.

This study reported that combining Poly-D,L-Lactic Acid with Platelet-Rich Plasma for facial rejuvenation reduced wrinkle severity and improved skin tone and hyperpigmentation in a 45-year-old female patient.

This study suggests a potential role for S100A7 and IL-17 in the pathogenesis of lichen planopilaris.

This study found that lichen planopilaris is associated with three core molecular pathways, which may inform new therapeutic strategies for scarring alopecia, including unique pathways like ABC transporters specific to LPP.

This paper presents a therapeutic approach with excellent results in a case of lichen planopilaris overlapping with dermatomyositis and scleroderma, although broader applicability is not discussed.

This review discusses the potential of lecithin organogels for improving topical drug delivery and presents no new experimental results; the authors highlight their stability and low skin irritancy as advantages.

This retrospective review found that while intralesional corticosteroids provided symptomatic improvement for lichen planopilaris, hydroxychloroquine with topical corticosteroids led to higher remission rates but did not result in visible hair regrowth.

This review examines the trichoscopic characteristics of scalp DLE and LPP, correlating these findings with histopathological data, but provides no new clinical results.

This review reports that low-level laser therapy may effectively prevent and alleviate oral mucositis from chemotherapy, supporting its use as a viable treatment option.

This study found that chemical lumbar sympathectomy with 5% phenol effectively treated idiopathic livedo reticularis in most patients, offering a potential long-lasting solution with repeatable efficacy upon recurrence.

In this study, lupus panniculitis of the scalp was associated with a high incidence of recurrence and progression to systemic lupus erythematosus, despite various treatments showing complete response within weeks.

This study found that low-level laser therapy may enhance wound healing and reduce pain, swelling, and inflammation by increasing mitochondrial activity and oxidative stress, leading to greater protein synthesis and cell proliferation.

This study found that low-level laser therapy effectively reduced relapse rates, while functional appliances did not; combining them offered no additional benefits.

The researchers reported that the facial Psoriasis Log-based Area and Severity Index (fPLASI) more reliably and sensitively captured clinical improvement in facial psoriasis than the existing facial Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (fPASI).

This study reported that lichen planopilaris predominantly affects females over 60, with a registered prevalence rate of 0.02581%, and is often associated with autoimmune diseases like systemic lupus erythematosus, suggesting a need for further research to enhance treatment approaches.
