label: Circumscribed Morphea
label_lc: circumscribed morphea
description: A type of morphea in which the lesions are circular or ovoid, and may be superficial or deep. The superficial lesions can have an indurated, waxy, ivory colored center with surrounding erythema or violaceous color during the active stage. Deep lesions can be sclerotic and depressed from underlying atrophy, and may show minimal skin color changes. When there are several (greater than or equal to 4), larger (greater than 3cm) lesions on two or more body areas this is classified as "generalized morphea".
