title: Milia arising in herpes zoster scars.
abstract: Milia caused by proliferative tendencies of the epithelium after injury may occur in areas of bullous eruption (10). Even though the possibility of milia arising in herpes zoster scar is real, it has not been reported previously. We describe a case of milia arising in herpes zoster scars as an another example of milia occurring in traumatized skin.
