Article Synopsis
- Frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) is a type of scarring hair loss primarily affecting postmenopausal and premenopausal women of African descent, with a focus on its diagnosis in darker skin types (Fitzpatrick IV-VI).
- The study highlights unique diagnostic challenges and earlier onset of FFA among black patients, who may also experience more severe symptoms and often show signs in the eyebrows before hair loss occurs on the scalp.
- The research aims to enhance understanding of FFA through trichoscopy findings, ultimately improving diagnosis and treatment options for affected individuals in this demographic.
