Cell-poor vacuolar interface reaction with hyperkeratosis, epidermal atrophy and pigmentary incontinence.  Associated peri-vascular and peri-adnexal lymphocytic infiltrate.  I think this is lupus, possibly sub-acute type. Suggest Anti-Ro/La  antibody check.

I think there is too much dermal mucin. So agree with a subacute lupus, getting worse after sun exposure.

The patient has known SLE.  So lupus erythematosus.
