As most of patients with Dermatofibroma are asymptomatic, the worldwide incidence of Dermatofibroma is unknown. Patients of all age groups may develop Dermatofibroma. Although, it is more occurred in 20s to 40s ages. There is no racial predilection to dermatofibroma. Female are more commonly affected by Dermatofibroma than male.
