Clinical patterns of damage to the scalp in these diseases are presented, confirming the possibility of developing cicatricial forms of hair loss, the treatment method is described. This clinical case demonstrates the need to conduct a histological examination in patients with scarring hair loss in order to select the most effective treatment method.

Proper control of inflammation can prevent the progression of cicatricial alopecia.
