TLDR The document concludes that specific dermoscopic features can help diagnose different facial red skin conditions.
The document summarizes the dermoscopic features of four facial erythematous inflammatory dermatoses: rosacea, seborrheic dermatitis (SD), contact dermatitis, and atopic dermatitis (AD). Rosacea is characterized by diffuse polygonal blood vessels on a red or purple background. Seborrheic dermatitis shows atypical vascularity on a yellow-red background with an oil-drop reddish halo around hair follicles and honeycomb pigmentation. Contact dermatitis presents with linear and pleomorphic blood vessels on a light red background, also with honeycomb pigmentation. Atopic dermatitis is identified by punctate and spherical blood vessels under a light red background with visible scales. The document discusses the clinical application of dermoscopy in diagnosing and treating these conditions, based on the review of clinical data and dermoscopic images from outpatients.
