A photograph of morphoea, also known as Addison's keloid.
A photograph of morphoea, also known as Addison's keloid. This is a local hardening of the skin, with yellowish or ivory-colored, rigid, dry, smooth patches. In morphoea, slightly raised plaques of thickened skin develop slowly and expand outwards. Their surface is usually smooth, and their centres are whitish or ivory coloured. The edges of new areas often have a violaceous or lilac colour. Older areas tend to become brownish.
