Treatment for central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia—Delphi consensus recommendations
2024, Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology
There is no established standard of care for treating central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (CCCA), and treatment approaches vary widely.
To develop consensus statements regarding the use of various pharmacological therapies in treating adults with CCCA.
We invited 27 dermatologists with expertise in hair and scalp disorders to participate in a 3-round modified Delphi study between January and March 2023. Statements met strong consensus if 75% of respondents agreed or disagreed. Statements met moderate consensus if 55% or more but less than 75% agreed or disagreed.
In round 1, 5 of 33 (15.2%) statements met strong consensus, followed by 9 of 28 (32.1%) in round 2. After the final round 3 meeting, strong consensus was reached for 20 of 70 (28.6%) overall statements. Two statements achieved moderate consensus.
This study included only English-speaking, US-based dermatologists and did not consider nonpharmacological therapies.
Despite varying opinions among dermatologists, consensus was reached for several statements to help clinicians manage CCCA. We also highlight areas that lack expert consensus with the goal of advancing research and therapeutic options for CCCA.

  La dermatoscopia es una nueva herramienta que ha simplificado enormemente el diagnóstico y manejo de estas enfermedades.
- •
  Las alopecias no cicatriciales son las más frecuentes (efluvio telogénico, alopecia areata y alopecia androgenética).
- •
  El médico de familia tiene un papel muy importante en el diagnóstico precoz de las alopecias cicatriciales, y así evitar una alopecia irreversible.
- •
  Es necesario realizar una breve exploración psicológica de los pacientes con alopecia para valorar qué personas necesitarán un apoyo psicológico, ya que con frecuencia las personas con alopecia presentan depresión, ansiedad y un deterioro moderado-severo en la calidad de vida.
- •
  El tratamiento del efluvio telogénico agudo es corregir la causa e informar del buen pronóstico.
- •
  El tratamiento de primera línea de la alopecia areata son las infiltraciones intralesionales de triamcinolona, excepto en las formas extensas o rápidamente progresivas en las que se recomienda prednisona 0,5 mg/kg/día.
