Popis: | Background: Hereditary hypotrichosis simplex is a rare genetic hair disease that affects the scalp. Failure to grow normal hair in terms of length and density is the main complaint of patients. Diagnosis usually established by exclusion of other congenital hair and other ectodermal disorders. Till now, no satisfactory treatment was used for the condition. Report: A 14 year old patient with hypotrichosis simplex was treated with combined platelet rich plasma injection and topical minoxidil 2% with marked improvement. Conclusion: While no satisfactory treatment presents for this condition, the use of platelet rich plasma injection can add new hope for hypotrichosis simplex patients. |
