What is ccca hair loss?

I've been experiencing some strange patches of hair loss on my scalp, and a friend mentioned something called 'CCCA hair loss'. I'm getting worried. What exactly is CCCA hair loss, and is it common?

Yes, it is a specific type of scarring hair loss that starts at the crown. It is best to consult a dermatologist early for proper diagnosis.

While keeping a healthy lifestyle and regular walking supports overall hair health, scarring hair loss like CCCA requires targeted medical treatment from a specialist.

It stands for Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia, which is a type of scarring hair loss. Definitely visit a skin specialist to get the right scalp treatment! 🌸
