illustrative example
I believe the intended meaning here is simply that the pathological conditions mentioned are highly demonstrative of a bullous skin condition.

chaplin
: see definition of caricatural: 1) qui tient de la caricature 2)qui déforme la réalité par exagération de certains aspects défavorables ex: une description caricaturale c'est cette dernière qui s'applique à ce contexte et illustrative ne traduit pas cela

There is nothing stylized, twisted or exaggerated about a major burn or Lyell Syndrome. These conditions simply demonstrate, illustrate or typify "bullous" skin reactions.
