Exfoliative cheilitis is characterized by recurrent desquamation of the labial border, with erythema and crusting. Although its etiology is unknown, apart from the possible intervention of the agents that cause acute cheilitis, there are usually psychological disorders or stress situations that seem to contribute to its development.

We present the case of a 19-year-old patient diagnosed with exfoliative cheilitis.
