Article Synopsis
- Becker's nevus (BN) is a benign, unilateral skin lesion that shows up as a hyperpigmented, hairy area, usually seen in adolescents, and is rarely found on the lower limbs.
- A 17-year-old boy presented with typical dermoscopic signs of BN on his lower leg, highlighting the effectiveness of dermoscopy in the diagnosis.
- While no definitive treatment exists for BN, cosmetic improvements are often the goal, and laser therapy has been found effective; however, treatment may not be necessary if the patient is unconcerned about appearance.
