Juvenile colloid milium is extremely rare, has its onset before puberty, may be inherited, may be caused by ultraviolet light, and is thought to result from the degeneration of keratinocytes. We report a 7‐year‐old girl with juvenile colloid milium. To the best of our knowledge this is the first reported case in Turkey.
