But some types of skin lymphoma can appear in younger people, even in children. Gender and race Most (but not all) types of skin lymphoma are more common in men than in women. Most also tend to be more common in African-Americans than in whites. The reasons for this are not known. Weakened immune systemSkin lymphomas may be more common in people with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), who have a weakened immune system. They may also be more common in people who have had an organ transplant such as a hea, kidney or liver transplant.
