Any advances in transplants for Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia?

June 25, 2015
Asked By:ffaisunfair in Sonoma, CA

Being that FFA and LPP are "rare" types of hairloss, it seems treatment for these types of loss are being ignored/aren't a priority. It's a double whammy that transplant seems to not be an option as well, just wondering if there are any new cases, techniques, or studies on ways to get these to work? Are stem cell transplants an option? And have any of you had patients who finally reached the "burn out" stage? I don't see many (if any) sufferers on the internet speak of reaching "burn out".
