Hair loss due to scarring can be treated by reducing inflammation, removing scar tissue, and transplanting hair. The Follicular Unit Extraction technique is effective but requires skill and time. Future focus should be on scar-less healing methods.

The study concluded that immune cells attacking hair follicles cause hair loss in alopecia, with genetics and environment also playing a role, and highlighted the potential of certain treatments.

New digital tools are improving the diagnosis and understanding of irreversible hair loss conditions.

Chemical hair straighteners can cause scalp and hair damage, but long-term effects are unclear.

Understanding the cause of bitemporal hair loss is key to deciding the right treatment.

Platelet-Rich Plasma therapy helps increase hair density and regrowth for some types of hair loss.

Peptide hydrogels show promise for healing skin, bone, and nerves but need improvement in stability and compatibility.

5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitors are effective for male hair loss and some skin conditions, but their effectiveness in women and safety concerns require careful use.

Some treatments for hair loss, like finasteride, biotin, and minoxidil, can be effective, but their success varies by individual case.

Women's hair loss can be due to hormonal changes and various conditions, with treatments focusing on stopping progression and managing symptoms.

Moth-eaten alopecia is linked to various skin diseases and requires early treatment to prevent worsening.

Lichen planopilaris (LPP) is linked to androgen excess, while frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) is linked to androgen deficiency.

Lichen planus pigmentosus and fibrosing frontal alopecia in Colombia are likely different stages of the same disease.

AFM can help diagnose lichen planopilaris by identifying specific hair structure changes.

The conclusion is that FFA and LPP have similar scalp biopsy features, making them hard to distinguish histologically, and FFA may be a specific kind of scarring hair loss.

Misdiagnosis of LPP in AGA patients can cause hair transplant issues.

New LPP subtype affects vellus hairs, mimics AGA, and needs biopsy for diagnosis.

Hair transplants for male baldness can show inflammation and fibrosis, but more research is needed to confirm LPP presence.

GLPLS and LPP are variants of lichen planus.

Hair loss from conditions like LPP and FFA can potentially be reversed with the right treatment.

Some postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia stopped losing hair with finasteride treatment, hinting at a possible hormonal cause.

Lichen planus is a skin condition that can resolve on its own, is linked to hepatitis C, and increases the risk of skin cancer.

The study found that steroids and tetracycline helped treat active Lichen planopilaris, and hair transplants were good for later stages.

A premenopausal woman had hair loss and skin issues, treated with topical steroids.

The VVG stain effectively differentiates scar tissue from normal skin and helps classify types of permanent alopecia.

Small white dots on the scalp seen with a dermoscope correspond to sweat ducts and vary with different hair disorders.

The document concludes that post-menopausal frontal fibrosing alopecia is a poorly understood condition that does not respond well to common treatments.
