    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Scarring alopecias are a heterogeneous group of disorders.
    • They are defined by irreversible follicular destruction and dermal scarring.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To categorize scarring alopecias into distinct groups.
    • To discuss selected conditions within each category.

    Main Methods:

    • Classification of scarring alopecias.
    • Review of selected disease entities within categories.

    Main Results:

    • Scarring alopecias are broadly divided into three categories: pediatric diseases, perifollicular lymphocytic diseases, and folliculopustular diseases.
    • Selected examples from each category are discussed.

    Conclusions:

    • A structured classification aids in understanding and managing diverse scarring alopecias.
    • Further research into specific entities within these categories is warranted.
