Article Synopsis
- Frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) is a type of hair loss marked by receding hairlines, itching, and small facial bumps, with many treatments available but some symptoms proving hard to treat.
- A review of 12 studies found that oral isotretinoin may significantly improve treatment-resistant facial papules in FFA patients, although the current evidence comes mainly from retrospective studies and case reports.
- The findings suggest that isotretinoin could be a beneficial treatment option, but more rigorous research is needed to confirm its effectiveness.
