The patient reported no previous history of
comedones and acnes.

Acneiform papules and open

At the end of the trial, after eight weeks, both groups of teenagers showed a reduction in inflammatory spots and
comedones (blackheads and whiteheads)
A Acne is a very common skin condition characterised by
comedones (blackheads and whiteheads) and pus-filled spots (pustules).
Among adult females with acne, 85% have large and small
comedones, with few inflammatory lesions, a study has shown.
La rosacea es una enfermedad cronica recidivante que afecta en forma principal la cara y se caracteriza por la aparicion de eritema centrofacial que comprende la nariz, region malar, menton y region central de las cejas; posteriormente puede asociarse a aparicion de papulas, pustulas y placas en ausencia de
comedones.
Whilst the etiogenesis of the condition is multifactorial, the bacterium Propionibacterium acnes plays an important role in the formation of
comedones and via the induction of inflammatory cytokines from monocytes.
Acne is a persistent dermatological disorder that is characterised by the formation of lesions such as
comedones, papules, pustules, and cysts mainly located on the face, and less commonly on the back and chest.
The disease mostly affects the face, the back and the chest, and is characterised by non-inflammatory open and closed
comedones, and by inflammatory papules and pustules.
The condition known eponymously as Favre and Racouchot disease, in which clusters of large
comedones appear on a thickened plaque over the malar region or elsewhere around the orbit, seems to always be accompanied by severe photodamage.
