Overview
Trichostasis spinulosa is a common but rarely diagnosed disorder of the hair follicles[1] that clinically gives the impression of blackheads, but the follicles are filled with funnel-shaped, horny plugs which are bundles of vellus hairs.[2]:768
Diagnosis
Standard skin surface biopsy (SSSB) is a non-invasive method used for diagnosis.[1]
