Tattooing with electrocauterization: a cosmetically acceptable therapeutic modality for a single halo naevus.

ABSTRACT

Two cases of single lesion halo naevus were treated with tattooing followed by electrocauterization resulting in good cosmetic acceptability. Tattooing with electrocauterization should be tried as a new therapeutic modality in a single lesion halo naevus especially on exposed parts of the body to avoid the unavoidable psychological trauma.
