It is characterized by recurrent nodules that may progress into deeper abscesses and sinus tracts. Treatment is challenging and often involves a combination of lifestyle modifications, medical therapies, and procedures to control symptoms. Deroofing is a tissue-saving surgical technique that has been well studied in adults and in our clinical experience is an important adjunct therapy in pediatric patients with moderate-to-severe HS. We describe the step-by-step process of deroofing, including surgical clinical pearls specific to the pediatric population. Follicular keratosis (FK) is a poorly understood disorder presenting with multiple, grouped hyperkeratotic follicular papules typically affecting the chin or jawline. This study describes the clinical presentation, histopathology, management, and outcomes of a series of pediatric patients of color with FK of the face, thought to be related to rubbing or friction on the skin. Retrospective review of 20 pediatric patients with FK of t
