Abstract :
Cosmesis is a major concern in facial lesions, and invasive diagnostic procedures may cause patient apprehension. In such cases, non-invasive techniques like dermoscopy can aid in confirming diagnoses. We present the case of a 45-year-old female with an asymptomatic, skin-colored cystic lesion on the face that had persisted for four years with seasonal exacerbation. Despite biopsy being the gold standard, non – invasive diagnostic tool such as dermoscopy which has gained significant attention in dermatology can be used. This case emphasizes dermoscopy as a valuable non-invasive tool, offering an alternative to skin biopsy, especially for facial lesions where cosmesis is crucial.
