Plasma rich in growth factors (PRGF) has shown to induce folliculogenesis in hair loss related disorders. However, the scientific evidence when facing FFA is scarce.<\/p>\n<p><strong class=\"sub-title\">Objectives:\u00a0<\/strong>The aim of this study was to retrospectively analyze the adjuvant use of PRGF compared to the conventional treatment in the management of FFA.<\/p>\n<p><strong class=\"sub-title\">Methods:\u00a0<\/strong>Participants with clinically diagnosed FFA who had been treated with either conventional therapy (Control Group) or conventional therapy combined with PRGF (PRGF Group) were identified from the center&#8217;s medical records. The clinical assessment was based on the &#8220;Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia Severity Score&#8221; (FFASS), which was fulfilled during a period of two and 4 years.<\/p>\n<p><strong class=\"sub-title\">Results:\u00a0<\/strong>This study included 118 patients with clinically diagnosed FFA (Control Group: 57 and PRGF Group: 61). No adverse effects related to the treatments were observed. Both treatments showed to halt the steady progression of hair loss compared to baseline. PRGF treatment also induced significant hair regrowth compared to the Control Group. The scalp inflammation was reduced in response to treatments. The FFASS score indicated that PRGF Group improved the symptoms and severity of FFA in a significant manner.<\/p>\n<p><strong class=\"sub-title\">Conclusions:\u00a0<\/strong>The adjuvant use of PRGF may exert long-term beneficial effects on hair loss reduction and might reduce the symptoms and severity of FFA.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong class=\"sub-title\">Keywords:\u00a0<\/strong>adjuvant therapy; frontal fibrosing alopecia; hair growth; plasma rich in growth factors.<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221; content_text_aligment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<a itemprop=\"url\" href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/12034754231177599?url_ver=Z39.88-2003&#038;rfr_id=ori:rid:crossref.org&#038;rfr_dat=cr_pub%20%200pubmed\" target=\"_blank\"  class=\"qodef-btn qodef-btn-medium qodef-btn-solid btnWebRosa2\"  >\n    <span class=\"qodef-btn-text\">Acc\u00e9der \u00e0 l&#039;article complet<\/span>\n    <\/a>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>J Cutan Med Surg. 2023 Jul-Aug;27(4):340-349. <\/strong><br \/>\nFrontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) is a scarring alopecia in which the exact etiopathogenesis has not been completely elucidated and the available treatments are not very effective.
