Summary
This study tests a red LED light cap in 5 women with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia (CCCA), a scarring hair loss that mainly affects middle-aged Black women. The cap is used daily for 10 minutes to see if it can calm scalp symptoms, slow hair loss, and help hair regrow in areas not yet scarred. The goal is to find a gentle, side-effect-free option for managing this condition.
