Permanent Makeup Procedure Heralds the Development of Systemic Sarcoidosis

Abstract

Permanent cosmetic procedures including tattooing are determined as risk factors that prompt the development of cutaneous granulomatous conditions. Scar sarcoidosis is an uncommon manifestation of a systemic granulomatous disease with a few cases reported in the literature worldwide. Although the incidence rates of sarcoid lesions at sites of pigment deposition are low, granuloma formation can provoke a severe systemic inflammatory response. We report a 48-year-old Hispanic female with a new onset of scar sarcoidosis that progressed to a systemic condition. Erythematous maculopapular eruptions arose on her left eyebrow area at the sites of scars from cosmetic tattooing, prior to exacerbation of the small airway disease. Histopathologic examination revealed typical findings of cutaneous sarcoidosis, including non-caseating epithelioid granulomas. This case highlights the importance of early detection of cutaneous sarcoidosis in long-standing scars due to the associated risks of systemic sarcoidosis.
