Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia Associated with Lichen Planus Pigmentosus: Not Only in Dark Phototypes

Abstract

The association between frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planus pigmetosus was first described in African women. Later, most reports about this association involved dark-skinned patients. Here, we describe 5 cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia associated with lichen planus pigmentosus in light-skinned women from Argentina. Our communication highlights the strength of both entities’ association also in lower Fitzpatrick phototypes.
