Acne necrotica is a more sever form of folliculitis also known as "acne varioliformis" or "acne forntalis". In this condition larger follicular spots (papules) become inflamed then develop blackened crusts, finally leaving permament pox-like scars. Acne necrotica may affect the face, scalp or other areas.
