Light cap tested to fight scarring hair loss

NCT ID NCT04764331

Summary

This small pilot study is testing whether a special light therapy cap can help control central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (CCCA), a form of scarring hair loss that mostly affects Black women. Five participants will use the cap daily for six months to see if it can stop further hair loss, reduce scalp symptoms like itching, and possibly promote hair regrowth in areas not yet scarred. The goal is to see if this device could become a new treatment option for this challenging condition.
