Treatment: Most biopsies of a lichenoid keratosis result in complete resolution of the lesion. Even if the entire lesion was not removed with the biopsy specimen, no treatment is necessary. Use of a topical corticosteroid cream or ointment twice daily for 1 to 2 weeks after healing of the biopsy site is likely to lead to complete resolution of the lichenoid keratosis. Other treatment options include light cryotherapy or a light curettage after anesthesia. Benign lichenoid keratoses rarely if ever recur.
