Late-Onset Facial Papular Elastorrhexis.

Papular elastorrhexis, a rare defect of dermal elastic fibers of unknown origin, usually involves the trunk and extremities of children or young adults. We report the case of a 62-year-old woman with multiple soft, skin-colored facial papules with histological findings characteristic of papular elastorrhexis. Awareness of this entity may allow for its proper identification outside the usual clinical setting.
