Lichen Planopilaris...newly diagnosed

I was finally able to see a specialist last month. The hair specialist wanted to put me on strong anti inflammatory meds however they can cause hives. My allergist recently diagnosed me with chronic hives...so strong anti inflammatory meds were ruled out for me. My allergist and the hair specialist decided to put me on Dupixent. I have had my first dose last week and have been told that all meds take about 4 months before you start to see results. Also, I have had two dermatologists tell me that my hair will not grow back in the LPP scarred areas on my scalp and I need to accept that.
Hope this info helps.
