A member asked:

Hello sir, my half forehead is dark and that is extending to down to half nose .doctors say this is morphea. and say there is no solution, help please ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Tough problem: Morphea is a subtype of scleroderma.It can cause a scar-like linear dermal contraction, which can extend down the face, but can occur anywhere.It is supposedly self limited, but persists 5-10 years. There are some topical treatments which may reduce the intensity, but you'll need to see a dermatologist for evaluation. Good luck.
