Folliculotropic Mycosis Fungoides. 

LyP type B or type D doesn’t fit well the clinical history. 

Primary Cutaneous CD8+ Aggressive Epidermotropic T-cell Lymphoma is usually an acute or subacute aggressive disease, instead this one seems something chronic progressive, as expected in FMF. 

CD3, CD2, CD5, CD7, CD4, CD8?

CD30, TIA1, CD45RA, CD45RO?

Agree with folliculotropic CTCL.  Sebaceous glands have been completely destroyed.  With the eye of faith there is some mucin hanging around where the sebaceous glands would have been, so you might also include CTCL-associated follicular mucinosis in the description.
