The article presents case studies of 41-year-old man and 60 years old woman with a pink papule and flesh-coloured papule on forehead respectively. The dermoscopy of man showed up as a reddish homogeneous papuleas same in woman but there was observed the difference in the reflectance confocal microscopy patterns and histopathology showed melanocytes. It also mentions that the confocal can provide means of directing the clinician at the correct diagnosis.
