Hair Transplantation for Scarring Alopecia

Aim: The purpose of this article is to prove the importance of autologous fat transfer (AFT) in scarring alopecia. Methods: We present a complete clinical report of 21 cases treated with a combined procedure of AFT and hair transplantation (HT) done in the last three years. Results: The main findings of this study are the constant, early and more predictable hair regrowth after the hair transplant done on a pre-treated scarring alopecia. Conclusion: Tissue regeneration through AFT can significantly improve hair growth in the area of scarring alopecia, underlining, once again, the tremendous potential of this approach. Future studies may need to be carried out.

AbstractAlopecia in the scalp region leads to psychosocial embarrassment for an individual. Alopecia could be due to several reasons, including genetic, hormonal, traumatic and infections. Cicatricial alopecias (CAs) are considered as trichological emergency, since their progression is rapid and always results in permanent hair loss. The pathogenesis, disease progression and prognosis of CA are poorly understood, and the treatment process is still evolving. An early diagnosis must be established, and aggressive treatment protocol should be followed in the management of scarring alopecia. This article presents various aspects of CA and determines whether hair transplant (HT) should be done in this condition.
