To mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, several vaccines have been developed and administered to the public since 2021. A spectrum of cutaneous reactions has been reported among some of the vaccinated individuals. In this case series, we describe three cases of pityriasis rosea and pityriasis rosea-like eruption that manifested after COVID-19 vaccinations, which might suggest the vaccines as a possible trigger.
