Abstract:
Discoid lupus erythematosus (DLE) is a disfigurement disease. The atrophic scar and hair loss of this disease are followed by cosmetic defects and profoundly impact psychological health. Concentrated growth factor (CGF) has been widely adopted in medical cosmetology. Here we report a 36-year-old female systemic lupus erythematosus patient with a 5-year history of alopecia in DLE, who was recommended for CGF therapy and experienced hair regrowth. We suggest that CGF may be an effective cosmetic treatment for DLE.
