LPP and hair transplant

Understanding Lichen Planopilaris (LPP) and Its Challenges in Hair Restoration

Lichen Planopilaris (LPP) is a rare inflammatory scalp disorder that leads to permanent hair loss due to follicle destruction. For hair restoration surgeons, LPP presents significant challenges, including:

Unpredictable Progression: LPP can be dormant for years but may flare up unexpectedly, leading to further hair loss even after transplantation.

Scalp Inflammation: Active inflammation increases the risk of graft failure, making it crucial to ensure the disease is in remission before considering a hair transplant.

Limited Donor Supply: Since LPP causes scarring, available donor hair may be compromised, reducing the number of viable grafts.

Patient Selection & Management: Not all LPP patients are candidates for surgery. A thorough evaluation and long-term medical management are necessary to stabilize the condition before any restoration efforts.

At Dr. Max Hair Restoration, we take a meticulous approach to treating LPP-related hair loss. Using advanced diagnostics, medical therapies, and personalized treatment plans, we ensure the best possible outcomes for our patients. If you're dealing with LPP and hair loss, consult with an experienced surgeon to explore your options.
