Abstract

Local skin depigmentation is a potentially troublesome side effect of local steroid injection. Although many authors believe that it is a rare occurrence, this rarity may be a result of the low number of cases that are actually reported. The authors are of the opinion that the practitioner should take the time to explain depigmentation as a possible side effect of local steroid injection to those patients whose skin color places them at cosmetic risk.
