Narrowband Intense Pulsed Light Treatment for Refractory Facial Rash Associated with Dermatomyositis

Dermatomyositis is an inflammatory myopathy characterized by typical skin findings. Cutaneous findings of DM include heliotrope eruption, Gottron papules, Gottron sign, poikiloderma, periorbital edema, facial swelling. The unique cutaneous manifestations of dermatomyositis are often resistant to con...

description Dermatomyositis is an inflammatory myopathy characterized by typical skin findings. Cutaneous findings of DM include heliotrope eruption, Gottron papules, Gottron sign, poikiloderma, periorbital edema, facial swelling. The unique cutaneous manifestations of dermatomyositis are often resistant to conventional treatments. Narrowband intense pulsed light is a novel treatment that may reduce vasodilation. Furthermore, it may have a role in regulating inflammation associated with dermatomyositis. We present a case of cutaneous dermatomyositis that was successfully treated with narrowband intense pulsed light.
