Hi!

First, welcome to the Forum!
Youīre at the right place here,īcause we all here have a quite good knowledge about FD, and the different ways to treat it.
Iīm a woman,too,and i have FD since 2002. The scaring on my scalp started in 2006,īcause FD progresses slowly.If you have a look into the Image Gallery you can see pics how my scalp looks today.I donīt want to scare you, but thatīs what this plague makes with our skin :(Iīve shaved my head for some months this year, but it only made it easier to care for my skin,it didnīt helped to stop the inflammation.
Iīve seen countless dermatologist, theyīve made 5 biopsys of my scalp,and iīve taken pills, i donīt know how much.
The next step for me is an appointment with a derm at a local hospital,īcause i consider to take Isotretinoin,and i want to know what they think about it.
So, i hope that youīll find some answers here.
Take care, and donīt loose hope :)

Scarhead.
