Parry-Romberg syndrome (PRS) is a rare form of localized scleroderma mainly affecting children and young adults, characterized by progressive hemifacial atrophy due to shrinkage and degeneration of tissues beneath the skin. Lichen sclerosus et atrophicus (LSA) is a rare chronic inflammatory skin disease that mainly affects preadolescent and perimenopausal females with anogenital and extragenital localization. Herein, we present a case of the coexistence of these two rare entities in a young adolescent female in the lower half of the face. To our knowledge, although there are numerous cases in the literature describing the coexistence of LSA and localized scleroderma, similar cases of the coexistence of PRS and LSA in the same site have not been discussed.
