Multiple cutaneous leiomyoma

 
Wikipedia: Multiple cutaneous leiomyoma

Multiple cutaneous leiomyomas (also known as "Pilar leiomyomas") arise from the arrectores pilorum muscles, and are made up of a poorly circumscribed proliferation of haphazardly arranged smooth muscle fibers located in the dermis that appear to infiltrate the surrounding tissue and may extend into the subcutis.[1]
