Trichostasis Spinulosa - Successful Treatment by Repeated Peeling with Capryloyl Salicylic Acid

Uwe Wollina

Abstract

Trichostasis spinulosa is an uncommon midfacial disease with negative impact on self esteem and appearance. Many available treatments provide only short time improvement. We report a 36-year-old female treated with a series of four capryloyl salicylic acid peelings with significant improvement for at least 24 months.
