May 2026 in “Frontiers in Immunology” This case report documents the first use of bimekizumab, a dual inhibitor of IL-17A and IL-17F, as monotherapy for dissecting cellulitis of the scalp (DCS), a challenging form of cicatricial alopecia. A 27-year-old male with difficult-to-treat DCS and hair loss, unresponsive to standard treatments, was administered bimekizumab (320 mg subcutaneously every 2 weeks for 16 weeks, then every 4 weeks). At the 16-week follow-up, the patient experienced no symptoms or adverse events, suggesting that bimekizumab effectively addresses the inflammatory mechanism of DCS, reduces symptoms, and improves quality of life.
