Abstract:
Temporal triangular alopecia is a triangular or oval shaped non-scarring alopecia, occurring on the temporal side of the scalp, which was first reported by Sabourand in 1950. It usually occurs in the childhood. There is no treatment for this disorder except for surgery. In this article, we report a case of focal alopecia which was successfully treated with micropigmentation.
