Multiple cutaneous side effects have been reported with the use of immunotherapies including programmed cell death protein 1 inhibitors. We report 2 patients who presented with papillary dermal elastolysis presenting as multiple, skin-colored, wrinkled papules and atrophic macules following an inflammatory eruption in the setting of combination chemotherapy with nivolumab and cabiralizumab. These two cases highlight a novel finding, elastolysis in the setting of chemotherapy with nivolumab and cabiralizumab.

Pseudoxanthoma elasticum-like papillary dermal elastolysis is a rare, benign, acquired, gradually-developing chronic elastic tissue disorder that almost exclusively affects post-menopausal women. It is essential to recognize this disease as it mimics the inherited pseudoxanthoma clinically. The pathophysiology behind this disease is multifactorial; it includes intrinsic skin aging, ultraviolet radiation exposure, and genetic components.

Fibroelastolytic papulosis (FEP) is an acquired cutaneous disorder of elastin that encompasses both white fibrous papulosis of the neck (WFPN) and pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE)-like papillary dermal elastolysis (PDE). Although FEP is a benign acquired disorder, it shares overlapping clinical features with pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE), a genetic disorder with systemic manifestations. We report two cases of FEP, including the WFPN and PXE-like PDE variants, in elderly women.

Dermal melanocytoses are a group of cutaneous disorders characterized by the presence of ectopic melanocytes in the dermis; the most well-known example is the Mongolian spot. Acquired dermal melanocytosis (ADM) is a term used to describe the onset of dermal melanocytosis occurring after its usual age of presentation (i.e.

Objectives: To investigate the effect of free dermal fat grafting during facelift surgery for the treatment of nasolabial folds.
Methods: This prospective cohort study involved 80 patients with moderate to severe nasolabial folds and facial skin dermatolysis.
