Article Synopsis
  • A study was conducted in Fez, Morocco, to analyze the dermoscopic features of trichostasis spinulosa (TS) and its correlation with clinical characteristics and treatment responses among patients.
  • The results showed that indicators like severe hair retention and dermoscopic blackhead-like structures were common, with a majority of patients having vellus hairs and follicular keratosis identified as orange-yellowish keratotic plugs.
