This case report describes a woman with scalp lichen planopilaris who developed facial papules coinciding with her hair loss condition, raising the question of an associated diagnosis.

This study found that patients with lichen planopilaris exhibit a higher pro-atherogenic lipid profile and elevated atherogenic indexes, suggesting a need for increased cardiovascular and lipid monitoring in these individuals.

This case report suggests that identifying hyperpigmentation on the upper eyelid with specific dermoscopy patterns could help diagnose facial lichen planus pigmentosus without needing a facial biopsy.

This study found that the revised BASP classification for pattern hair loss, which addresses certain limitations of the original, could serve as an alternative option despite a decrease in clinical accuracy and ease of use.

Additionally, it increased brain delivery and stability, suggesting potential for treating stress-related neurobehavioral disorders.

This study found that in Lichen Planopilaris, the Microbacteriaceae family was negatively correlated with IL-23 expression, suggesting a role in the disease's inflammation and microbiota composition.

This study reviewed 40 patients with scalp symptoms and identified a new variant of diffuse lichen planopilaris in 20 individuals, suggesting these conditions should be considered in similar cases.

This discussion highlights the evolving clinical spectrum of lichen planopilaris, noting atypical features and presentations in younger males that suggest potential different pathomechanisms from previously recognized variants.

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.
