These manifestations can be from discoid erythematous infiltrated lesions, over erythematous butterfly lesion on the face typical for systemic disease, up to difiguring lesions of lupus profundul. On the scalp most often manifestations of lupus erythematosus are cicatricial alopecia as a symptom of chronic cutaneous lupus erythematosus and effluvium typical for systemic disease. Each of these patients need individual therapeutic approach, and answer to therapy differs from patient to patient.
