Abstract :

Acquired Bilateral Nevus of Ota like Macules (ABNOM) typically presents in adulthood with bilaterally symmetrical blue-brown to slate-gray macules in a speckled distribution over the face. Mucosal pigmentation is characteristically absent. Dermoscopy is a non-invasive tool that aids in distinguishing ABNOM from Melasma. Laser therapy is the most widely used treatment modality. Here we present the case of an 18-year-old female diagnosed as ABNOM with Mucosal involvement.
