Based on the GAGS Scale the severity index of subjects were observed. A cohort of 110 young and adult population are included in our study. Results: A study on Acne vulgaris (110 cases, 6 months) revealed a higher prevalence among females (70.9%). Severity at visit: severe (65.4%), moderate (24.5%), very severe (10.1%). Follow-ups showed a decrease in severe cases and an increase in mild. No initial counselling on food limitations was provided. Males comprised 29.1% of cases. Further analysis may elucidate treatment efficacy and the potential impact of lifestyle factors on acne management. Conclusion: This study compares combining topical benzoyl peroxide and minocycline gel alone versus with chemical peel for acne treatment. Chemical peel adjunct shows enhanced efficacy, lower recurrence, and scar reduction. Female predominance noted among 110 patients. Regular follow-ups and standardized acne scoring recommended. Physicians should be educated on benefits of combination therapy. Result is better clinical clearance with chemical peel addition.
