Cutaneous plasmacytosis (CP) is an uncommon chronic disease of unknown aetiology, reported mainly in middle‐aged patients of Asian descent. It is diagnosed by a constellation of physical, laboratory, radiological and histopathological findings. We report a patient with CP who demonstrated a favorable and promising response to mask‐bath PUVA.
