Denied
The Board denied a compensable disability rating for the veteran's service-connected pseudofolliculitis barbae because the condition does not affect at least five percent of the entire body or require intermittent systemic therapy.
The deciding factor: The evidence shows that the veteran's pseudofolliculitis barbae does not meet the criteria for a compensable rating.
