Chloracne is an acneiform eruption of blackheads, cysts, and pustules associated with exposure to certain halogenated aromatic compounds, such as chlorinated dioxins and dibenzofurans. [1] The lesions are most frequently found on the cheeks, behind the ears, in the armpits and groin region.
In some cases cysts may develop all over the body. The cysts are mostly small (2–20 mm) but they may be several centimetres in diameter. They tend to be soft to firm semi-translucent bumps, and contain an oily, yellow liquid. Sometimes a small central punctum can be identified and they may contain one or more hairs (eruptive vellus hair cysts).
A comedo can be open (blackhead) or closed by skin (whitehead) and occur with or without acne. [3] The word comedo comes from Latin comedere 'to eat up' and was historically used to describe parasitic worms; in modern medical terminology, it is used to suggest the worm-like appearance of the expressed material.

The scalp, ears, back, face, and upper arm, are common sites of sebaceous cysts, though they may occur anywhere on the body except the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. [4] They are more common in hairier areas, where in cases of long duration they could result in hair loss on the skin surface immediately above the cyst.
