The disease progressed despite systemic treatment with antibiotics, isotretinoin, topical corticosteroids and calcineurin inhibitors. Stable condition was achieved by pulse intravenous corticosteroid therapy followed by oral doxycycline for six months. The clinical and histopathological features and differential diagnosis are discussed. The classification of scarring alopecias and therapeutic algorithm of folliculitis decalvans are attached.
