The reason for this emerging epidemic may be a higher exposure to an unknown trigger, although its aethiology and pathogenesis still remain enigmatic. Clinical, trichoscopic, sonographic, and histopathologic findings are allowing clinicians to understand more aspects about this type of cicatricial alopecia. Several treatments have been used in frontal fibrosing alopecia, although the 5-alpha reductase inhibitors seem to be the most promising. The aim of this report is to provide a compilation about the published data regarding frontal fibrosing alopecia in a narrative review.}, publisher = {MDPI}, keywords = {Frontal fibrosing alopecia}, keywords = {Scarring alopecia}, keywords = {Bulge}, keywords = {Trichoscopy}, keywords = {Histopathology}, keywords = {Treatment}, title = {Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: A Review}, doi = {10.3390/jcm10091805}, author = {Porriño Bustamante, María Librada and Fernández Pugnaire, María Antonia and Arias Santiago, Salvador Antonio}, }
