Abstract

Acne vulgaris is a chronic skin disease with an inflammatory condition of the skin affecting the pilosebaceous glands. Four concepts of pathogenesis lead to the formation of acne vulgaris, such as sebum production, follicular skin, microbial colonization by Propionibacterium acnes bacteria, and inflammatory mediators. The diagnosis of acne vulgaris is dependent on the identification of lesions using classification from the American Academy Dermatology. Acne management is exceptionally diverse, including monotherapy or a combination of various agents that have a role in suppressing the anti-inflammatory and antibacterial activities following the multifactorial causes of acne.
