SUMMARY A 33‐year‐old woman is described who suffers from an idiopathic loss of mid‐dermal elastic tissue which leads to wrinkling of the skin and to discrete perifollicular protrusions. In accordance with Shelley & Wood (1977) we conclude that these findings represent a new entity for which we propose the term ‘non‐inflammatory dermal elastolysis’.
