Hair transplant in frontal fibrosing alopecia
Alopecia is an important condition presenting with excessive hair loss. The problem of alopecia is important concern in trichology. Sometimes, alopecia can be due to complicated etiologies. The good examples are metabolic diseases. In this article, the authors will present the details of alopecia due to some important metabolic diseases. Special focus is made on diagnosis and treatment.Frontal fibrosing alopecia is an increasingly common form of scarring alopecia. The aim of this study was to describe the demographic and clinical characteristics of patients with FFA seen at the trichology unit of a medium-sized regional hospital and to report on treatments used.Alopecia areata (AA), which is defined as an autoimmune hair loss disease, has a serious impact on the quality of life for patients with AA worldwide. In this study, to our knowledge, a previously unreported method of AA induction in C3H mice has been established and validated. Using this method, we showed that dermal injection of 1–3 million of a mixture of skin cells freshly isolated from AA-affected skin induces AA in more than 80% of healthy mice. Contrary to the previous protocol, the induction of AA by this approach does not need any surgical AA skin grafting, cell manipulation, or high number of activated T cells.
