Skin Diseases

Lichen Planus

Lichen planus is an itchy, polygonal, violaceous rash that can also mark the mouth, nails and scalp.

It is immune-mediated, not an infection you caught from a towel. We calm the itch, check the mouth, and watch scarring on the scalp.

Understand

What we explain in clinic

Wrists & ankles

Classic

Flat-topped, shiny, itchy bumps that can leave dark marks.

Mouth

Look

White lacy lines inside the cheeks need a glance at every visit.

Scalp

Risk

Scarring loss is the reason we do not ignore a sore, burning scalp.

Nails

Ridges

Thinning or a wing of skin at the fold can be LP of the nail.

At Grace Clinic

How care is planned

01

Skin mapping

We examine the rash, hair, nails or scars in good light and note triggers, duration and earlier treatment.

02

Clear diagnosis

Where needed we advise tests, biopsy or dermoscopy so treatment is specific, not trial-and-error.

03

A plan you can follow

Creams, procedures or laser are explained in simple steps, with a review date at Grace Clinic.

When to book

Come in for an intensely itchy new rash, a burning scalp, or white lacy changes in the mouth.
