Abstract
|
|
|
|
Eruptive vellus hair cysts (EVHC) are characterized by multiple, small, discrete red or brown colored papules that usually occur on the chest and extremities. Their etiology is unknown. A variant form of EVHC that occur exclusively on the face is rare and it is very characteristic for its location and color. We report here on a facial variant of EVHC that occurred on the face of 23-year-old woman with asymptomatic, skin-colored to bluish tiny papules. The lesions first appeared at the age of 22-years.
