The density of transplantation was 20~30 units per square centimeter in the fronto- temporal area and 50 units per square centimeter in the eyebrow. Results The incision of donor site in all patients healed well. All patients were followed up for 18 months to 4 years. The growth of transplanted hairs was good. Patients were satisfied with the efficacy. The survival rate of hair was more than 90%. Conclusion Under the premise of ineffective medical treatment and stable condition of patients, hair transplantation is an effective treatment method for frontal fibrosing alopecia in short-term.
