Abstract:
Sebaceous hyperplasia occurs on the face in persons over 40 years of age. Cyclosporine in dermatologic diseases can be used for the treatment of psoriasis, pyoderma gangrenosum, lichen planus, graft-versus-host disease, epidermolysis bullosa acquisita, Behcet's disease, and paraneoplastic pemphigus. etc. The side effects of cyclosporine in mucocutaneous tissue, were hypertrichosis, gingival hypertrophy, acneiform eruption, keratosis pilaris, flushing, angioedema, urticaria, and anaphylaxis have also been reported with the use of cyclosporine. Development of sebaceous hyperplasia is related to the process of dysplastic epithelial proliferation. We experienced a case of sebaceous hyperplasia in a renal transplant patient receiving cyclosporine. After carbon dioxide laser was done, lesions were cleared without any scar.
