This study shows the high prevalence of skin lesions in children and adolescents with obesity. The association between skin lesions and the HOMA score indicates that skin manifestations are a marker of insulin resistance. To prevent secondary diseases and improve QoL, thorough skin examinations and interdisciplinary cooperation are necessary.
