The authors report case of lipoid proteinosis. This is an autosomal recessive genetic disease involving the skin and mucous membranes. Skin lesions have a granular appearance, with infiltration and wrinkling of the skin, especially on the face. The authors show the success of dermabrasion on skin lesions on the face of a 21-year-old girl displaying typical symptoms of lipoid proteinosis.
