Improvement of Suspected Linear Morphea Seen with Topical Ruxolitinib

Linear morphea is an autoimmune skin condition characterized by localized sclerosis and discoloration. Current standard of care includes topical and intralesional steroids, phototherapy, and immunosuppressive agents; however, no gold-standard treatment exists. We present a 34-year-old female who presented with a hypopigmented and indurated plaque in an en coup de sabre configuration on her forehead, suspicious of linear morphea, that improved significantly in thickness and hypopigmentation after eight weeks of 1.5% ruxolitinib cream.
