Dermatoscopy in pityriasis versicolor. (A) Classic hypopigmented lesion of pityriasis versicolor (PV) displaying typical furrow scaling. (B) Follicular hyperpigmented PV displaying small, roundish, folliculocentric tan areas with discrete scaling. (C) Hyperpigmented folliculocentric PV lesion exhibiting reddish-tan area with perifollicular, furrow, and peripheral inward scaling. (D) Hyperpigmented PV with subtle furrow scales and perifollicular scale. (E) Hyperpigmented classic PV lesion with no scale. Peripheral hypopigmented area surrounding the lighter centre (“contrast halo sign”) can be appreciated. (F) Hypopigmented PV exhibits diffuse scaling and peripheral hyperpigmented areas (“contrast halo sign”).
