AB  - BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Cosmetic camouflage is known to improve quality of life in 
      adults. Few data are available regarding cosmetic camouflage in children, and 
      thus it is not often selected as a mode of treatment. We sought to determine 
      whether cosmetic camouflage leads to improved quality of life of pediatric 
      patients with visible dermatoses and their parent or primary caregiver. METHODS: 
      Patients aged 5 to 17 years with visible skin disease and their parent were 
      assessed with the Children's Dermatology Life Quality Index (CDLQI) and the 
      Family Dermatology Life Quality Index (FDLQI) before and after consultation 
      regarding cosmetic camouflage. RESULTS: Twenty-two children with skin conditions 
      were included in the study. The mean CDLQI decreased from 6.82 (SD = 1.28) to 
      3.05 (SD = 0.65; P = .0014), while the mean FDLQI decreased from 7.68 (SD = 1.15) 
      to 4.68 (SD = 0.92; P = .0012). CONCLUSIONS: Our study highlighted improvement in 
      quality of life in patients with skin disorders who were managed with cosmetic 
      camouflage.
