Keratosis pilaris
Keratosis follicularis, also known as Darier disease, is a rare hereditary disease with poor keratinization of epidermal cells as the basic pathological change. It usually occurs between the ages of 8 and 16, rarely before the age of 5, with no obvious racial or gender differences. The condition may gradually worsen with age. The characteristic skin lesions are hard follicular papules ranging from needle tips to peas in size, with greasy crusts or bran-like scales on the top.
