Sumario:Lichen planus is defined as a dermatosis of unknown origin, associated with immune and genetic factors, which is characterized by presenting purple polygonal pruritic papules in addition to presenting in different forms. This manifests itself with hyperpigmented spots and occurs mainly in women between 30 and 60 years of age, in photoexposed areas, and is prevalent in places with high temperatures and high sun exposure. Its diagnosis is clinical and histopathological, and its treatment is based on the use of topical corticosteroids and whitening creams, however, the lesions can be resistant to treatment, which is why in recent years different and innovative techniques have been implemented that allow the management of this pathology, therefore, the following review article aims to mention the developments in the management of pigmented lichen planus.
