Frontal fibrosing alopecia (FFA) is an inflammatory cicatricial alopecia, which is considered to be a variant of lichen planopilaris. In addition to follicular changes, FFA often presents with associated cutaneous manifestations in most patients, including lichen planus pigmentosus, implantation line hypochromia and facial papules. The objective of the present article is to provide a detailed overview of the non-follicular cutaneous clinical manifestations of FFA and discuss their impact on the diagnosis and treatment of patients with this condition.
