“…Brocq first described this entity in 1923 as “L'erythrose pigmenteé peri‐buccale,” reporting women with rough, dry skin and yellow‐brown pigmentation around the mouth and nose . After this first description, several names, including l'erythrose pigmentaire faciale , dermatose pigmentée médiofaciale , erythrosis pigmentosa peribuccalis , and erythrosis pigmentata faciei , have been given to this rare entity. A patient with EPPB and erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli (EFFC) has been reported , and although these two entities seem to be different since one affects mainly the perioral area and is more frequent in women and the other affects only the preauricular area and usually affects men and is more intensely erythematosus, they share histologic and clinical findings, so the name erythrosis pigmentosa faciei et colli has been proposed to include both spectrums of one disease .…”

Erythrosis pigmentosa peribuccalis is an infrequent condition, with fewer than 35 cases reported in the literature, that affects mainly women. It presents as small papules that form a hyperpigmented plaque around the mouth and nose. Little is known about the etiology of this condition, its dermoscopic characteristics have not been described, and no effective treatment has been reported. We report a 15-year-old girl with this rare dermatosis who was successfully managed with daily calcipotriol, weekly topical ivermectin, and strict photoprotection. We also describe for the first time the dermoscopic findings of this entity.

Facial melanoses (FM) are a common presentation in Indian patients, causing cosmetic disfigurement with considerable psychological impact. Some of the well defined causes of FM include melasma, Riehl's melanosis, Lichen planus pigmentosus, erythema dyschromicum perstans (EDP), erythrosis, and poikiloderma of Civatte. But there is considerable overlap in features amongst the clinical entities. Etiology in most of the causes is unknown, but some factors such as UV radiation in melasma, exposure to chemicals in EDP, exposure to allergens in Riehl's melanosis are implicated. Diagnosis is generally based on clinical features. The treatment of FM includes removal of aggravating factors, vigorous photoprotection, and some form of active pigment reduction either with topical agents or physical modes of treatment. Topical agents include hydroquinone (HQ), which is the most commonly used agent, often in combination with retinoic acid, corticosteroids, azelaic acid, kojic acid, and glycolic acid. Chemical peels are important modalities of physical therapy, other forms include lasers and dermabrasion.
