Abstract
To observe the clinical efficacy of warm needling therapy for keloidal acne. The 66 cases with keloidal acne were randomly allocated into a treatment group and a control group, 36 in the treatment group and 30 in the control group. The cases in the treatment group were treated with warm needling therapy upon qi arrival, whereas those in the control group were treated with acupuncture alone. Then the skin lesion, inflammation and improvement of the constitution were compared before and after treatment. The clinical efficacies in the two groups were also compared. The skin lesion, inflammation and constitutional improvement in the treatment group were superior to the control group (P<0.05). The total effective rate in the treatment group was higher than that in the control group (P<0.05), coupled with a lower relapse rate. Warm needling can result in a fast effect and lower rate of relapses for keloidal acne without toxic or adverse reactions. Additionally, in can also strengthen the patient’s constitution.
