“…Similarly, the onset of the disease shows a wide range, starting from birth to as old as 43 years old. The male:female ratio is 2:1 [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 ]. Differential diagnoses include keratosis pilaris rubra, poikiloderma of Civatte, Riehl's melanosis, and pigmented peribuccal erythrosis of Brocq.…”

“…Numerous pinhead-sized follicular papules are present within the involved areas that may sometimes appear relatively hypopigmented. Bilateral distribution is the main characteristic, but unilateral cases have been described [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 ]. EFF is usually asymptomatic.…”

Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei is a rare sporadic condition of unknown etiology characterized by reddish-brownish patches and follicular papules that appear commonly on the face and rarely on the neck. Herein, we report a 16-year-old male who had asymptomatic facial skin lesions since early childhood. His family history revealed a similar case in his younger brother. His parents are not consanguineous. Skin examination revealed diffuse nonscaly brownish patches with erythematous background and multiple skin-colored, hypopigmented follicular papules on both cheeks. A summary of previous reports of erythromelanosis follicularis faciei in the literature is presented in this report.

Abnormal skin pigmentation represents a common skin problem which may be congenitally determined or acquired during life. The former are discussed in Chapter [70]. Acquired pigmentary disorders encompass a broad range of diseases resulting not only in abnormal melanin pigmentation of the skin but also in skin colour change produced by a variety of other endogenous and exogenous pigments. The first part of this chapter examines the melanocyte and normal melanogenesis. The second part discusses not only acquired abnormalities of skin pigmentation resulting from disturbances in melanin pigmentation but also those disorders due to other endogenous or exogenous pigments. The third part describes acquired hypomelanosis including disorders with reduced pigmentation (hypopigmentation) and total absence of pigmentation (depigmentation). In the final part, non‐melanin pigmentation of the skin is examined.

Skin pigmentation by melanocytes is regulated by complex mechanisms including melanoblast migration, melanosome transport, melanosome transfer and melanogenesis. Melanogenesis is influenced by UV light, and endocrine, paracrine and autocrine factors. This leads to a large differential diagnosis of pigmentary disorders. Additionally, melanocytes are highly immunogenic and can be targeted by the immune system, leading to vitiligo and halo naevi. Non‐melanin pigmentation arises from endogenous sources such as haemosiderosis, carotenoderma and ochronosis or exogenous pigmentation such as metals, mediation and tattoos.
