Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei in women.
Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei is an infrequently diagnosed disorder thought to be more common in men, with only seven reported cases in women. This condition consists of the clinical triad of well-demarcated erythema, hyperpigmentation, and follicular plugging on the face. We describe two additional female patients with this condition and present a review of the literature.
