COVID-19 es una enfermedad causada por el nuevo coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, que tiene una alta tasa de propagación, especialmente a través de aerosoles liberados por personas infectadas. Por ello, como medida preventiva, varias entidades determinaron el uso obligatorio de máscaras de protección facial, induciendo su uso más frecuente y por períodos más prolongados. En este contexto, este estudio buscó identificar las principales dermatosis asociadas al uso prolongado de mascarillas, así como resaltar los aspectos que influyeron en el desarrollo de estas condiciones. A partir de una revisión integradora de la literatura, se seleccionaron 15 artículos. Tras analizar los estudios, se pudo identificar que los cambios cutáneos más comunes fueron prurito, dermatitis de contacto, acné y eritema, especialmente utilizando la máscara N95, ya que el público más evaluado involucra a los profesionales de la salud. Por ello, es necesario adoptar cuidados personales para evitar la aparición de estos cambios a niveles más severos.
