👉 Adapter pimples, also known as folliculitis adiposa papilaris (FAP), are a rare skin condition characterized by small, raised bumps or pimples that typically appear on the face, neck, and upper chest. These lesions are caused by an overgrowth of hair follicles, often triggered by chronic inflammation or infection. Unlike typical acne, adapter pimples are not associated with high oil production or clogged pores but rather with the abnormal proliferation of hair follicles. They can be painful and may lead to scarring if left untreated, making early diagnosis and management crucial for preventing complications.
