Lichen planopilaris (LPP) and its variant frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) is a disfiguring alopecia that rarely yields satisfactory hair transplantation results. Grafts may grow initially only to be obliterated by re-activation of the disease within the first few months to years post-transplant. Here, we detail the management of a patient who was diagnosed and treated for breast carcinoma after her diagnosis of LPP/FFA. Two years after completion of chemotherapy, the patient presented with quiescence of her LPP and successfully underwent hair transplantation by follicular unit transplantation method. She has maintained the grafts without re-activation of her scarring alopecia for 7 years – a success we attribute to chemotherapy.

Lichen planopilaris is a rare inflammatory condition that is also known as follicular lichen planus. Although the condition commonly affects the scalp, it sometimes involves the other regions of the body with a variety of clinical presentations. The involvement beyond the scalp is considered to be a generalized nature of disease process. In this report, we present a case of generalized follicular lichen planus in a 34-year-old Thai female presenting with comedone-like lesions on the trunk and extremities as well as scarring alopecia on the scalp. Dermoscopic features were also discussed.

This case report further supports a possible association between spray-on sunscreen use and lichen planopilaris (LPP).  In order to lead to more accurate diagnosis and treatment, dermatologists should elucidate specific sunscreen use in patients presenting with symptoms consistent with LPP.
