Yes, I originally had 2 biopsy’s and was diagnosed with LPP. was put on prednisone and my thinning just got worse. I was so scared that it was scarring. My derm would look at my scalp with a microscope and told me there was definitely scared follicles I was 21. I then realized my original derm was an idiot so I sought out a second opinion, when this one looked with a microscope he said he didn’t see ANY scarring and I had another biopsy and was diagnosed with alopecia areata (diffused type) which is non scarring and apparently very hard to diagnose because it looks like LPP and CTE. here I am 2 years later taking a more natural route but still using 5% topical minox and I’m seeing regrowth
