Granuloma faciale is a rare skin condition that causes red or purple bumps to form on the face. The bumps are usually firm and may be itchy or painful. They can range in size from a few millimeters to several centimeters. Granuloma faciale is not contagious and is not caused by an infection. Treatment typically involves topical or oral steroids, and in some cases, laser therapy.

The most common symptom of granuloma faciale is a single, red, raised lesion on the face. The lesion may be dome-shaped, and may be as small as a few millimeters or as large as several centimeters. It may be firm or soft, and may be itchy or painful. Other symptoms may include swelling, redness, and tenderness around the lesion. In some cases, the lesion may become ulcerated or crusty.

Granuloma faciale is a rare skin condition that is not well understood. The exact cause is unknown, but it is believed to be related to an abnormal immune response to an unknown trigger. Possible triggers may include sun exposure, certain medications, infections, or an underlying autoimmune disorder.

The main treatment for Granuloma faciale is topical corticosteroids. These are applied directly to the affected area and can help reduce inflammation and itching. Other treatments may include topical calcineurin inhibitors, such as tacrolimus or pimecrolimus, which can help reduce inflammation and itching. In some cases, oral corticosteroids may be prescribed to reduce inflammation. In severe cases, cryotherapy or laser therapy may be used to reduce the size of the lesion.
