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.

A young man with an unusual type of scarring hair loss suggests a possible new variant of a known scalp condition.

Some people with pattern hair loss may also have scalp inflammation and scarring similar to lichen planopilaris.

Folliculitis decalvans is a rare scalp condition causing scarring hair loss, treated with long-term antibiotics and other medications, but it often comes back and is hard to manage.

Dermoscopy helps diagnose and monitor treatment for hair loss from scarring conditions like discoid lupus and lichen planopilaris.

Fetal skin cells from a cell bank heal wounds faster and with less scarring than adult cells.

Mycophenolate mofetil was effective for most patients in treating scarring hair loss, but some had side effects.

Cholesterol-related compounds can stop hair growth and cause inflammation in a type of scarring hair loss.

Researchers found that dissecting folliculitis of the scalp is linked to obesity, severity increases with duration and number of nodules, and early treatment is important to prevent scarring.

Seborrhoeic dermatitis may cause a condition called "seborrhoeic folliculitis," leading to chronic scalp inflammation and scarring hair loss.

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

Acne is a common skin condition linked to diet, hormones, and genetics, and early treatment can prevent scarring.

A 19-year-old male had two rare skin conditions causing scarring and permanent hair loss.

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a popular hair transplant method with minimal scarring that can transplant many grafts quickly and improve appearance and psychological well-being.

Hair transplantation is safe and effective for permanent hair loss due to scarring, with high patient satisfaction.

Fetal skin heals without scarring due to unique cells and processes not present in adult skin healing.

Common types of non-scarring hair loss have various causes and treatments, but more effective solutions are needed.

Treatments for permanent hair loss from scarring aim to stop further loss, not regrow hair, and vary by condition, with partial success common.

Transverse scalp sections are better for diagnosing non-scarring hair loss, while vertical sections are better for a specific scarring hair loss called lichen planopilaris.

Early treatment of acne is crucial to prevent scarring and psychological effects.

Human amniotic membrane helps heal skin wounds faster and with less scarring.

A new liposome treatment helps heal deep burns on mice by improving hair regrowth and reducing scarring.

Surgical methods for hair loss are less common than hair transplants but still useful, especially for scarring hair loss.

A device was made in 2008 to measure hair loss severity. Other findings include: frizzy mutation in mice isn't related to Fgfr2, C/EBPx marks preadipocytes, Cyclosporin A speeds up hair growth in mice, blocking plasmin and metalloproteinases hinders healing, hyperbaric oxygen helps ischemic wound healing, amniotic membranes heal wounds better than polyurethane foam, rhVEGF165 from a fibrin matrix improves tissue flap viability and induces VEGF-R2 expression, and bFGF enhances wound healing and reduces scarring in rabbits.
