Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a non-invasive, effective treatment for superficial skin conditions, offering superior cosmetic outcomes compared with traditional therapies. Bowen's disease (BD) of the nipple-areola complex (NAC) is rare and thus, lacks a standardized treatment approach. This report details the case of a 48-year-old woman who was successfully treated for BD of the NAC using PDT. Over a follow-up period of 30 months, there was no evidence of disease recurrence, underscoring the potential of PDT as a viable treatment option for this rare manifestation of BD.
