Demonstrates the role of dermocosmetics in improving acne outcomes, suggesting enhanced tolerability and adherence.
Acne management is complex and there can be adherence, tolerability, and efficacy problems. Dermocosmetics alone can be used in milder forms of acne or in maintenance post treatment, as a good compromise between efficacy and tolerability. As adjuncts, dermocosmetics can also decrease skin irritation and thereby increase adherence, can enhance the efficacy of prescription therapies, and can normalize dysbiosis in acne.
