Vulvar psoriasis showed dotted vessels spaced regularly inside a well-defined erythematous patch on dermoscopy, while short linear vessels and structureless white areas were characteristic of most genital lichen cases. Conclusion: Physicians who undertake aesthetic procedures on the genital region must have a thorough understanding of the clinic and dermoscopy characteristics of various disorders that impact this area.
