About Cicatricial Alopecia

Cicatricial (scarring) alopecias can permanently destroy hair follicles if inflammation is not controlled. Prompt assessment, trichoscopy, and sometimes biopsy are important for diagnosis and treatment planning.

Why choose this treatment

Our approach to care

  • Careful clinical and trichoscopic evaluation
  • Biopsy when needed to confirm subtype
  • Anti-inflammatory and disease-modifying strategies
  • Ongoing monitoring to protect remaining follicles

Suitability and expected outcomes are determined after clinical assessment. Outcomes vary according to diagnosis and individual response.

The priority is to stabilise active disease and preserve remaining hair. Regrowth in scarred areas is limited; goals are discussed honestly at the outset.

Care is individualised according to subtype, activity, and patient goals.
