Alopécia de tração é uma forma de alopecia cicatricial permanente provocada por estilos de penteado que impõem tração sustentada nas raízes do cabelo. As manifestações clínicas nas muitas variantes desta síndrome incluem foliculite, cilindros peripilares, redução na densidade do cabelo com pelos velos e, às vezes, cabelos quebrados nas áreas afetadas e, eventualmente alopecia cicatricial. A alopecia por tração é observada mais comumente em estilos de penteado africanos e afro-caribenhos, estilos em que o cabelo é firmemente trançado. A queda de cabelo comumente começa nas regiões temporais e em frente e acima das orelhas, mas pode envolver outras partes do couro cabeludo. | |||
