In summary, patients with cutaneous lesions of lupus erythematosus should be treated with sunscreens, topical and intralesional corticosteroids, and anti-malarials as standard therapy. The choice of alternative therapy is personal, and discussions of the risks and benefits should be carefully documented. Successful therapy for cutaneous LE is possible in almost all well-motivated, cooperative patients.
