Twenty patients showed a marked flushing tendency, but the condition was apparently unrelated to other factors studied, including colouring, skin type, pregnancy and the contraceptive pill. Perioral dermatitis is a distinct entity and not a variant of seborrhoeic derma-titis or rosacea. All patients were greatly improved by tetracycline therapy for 2–3 months, after which relapse was unusual. Accepted for publication May 17th, 1972. |
