Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei is a rare disease characterized by reddish brown pigmentation and follicular papules localized on certain areas such as the face and neck. Young men are usually affected, but young women or children may be affected. Bilateral distribution is usual, but it may occur unilaterally. Histopathologically, hyperkeratosis, increased melanization and dilatation of the hair follicle are characteristic. Two female patients with typical localizations and clinical findings of the disease are reported here.
