The human face plays a pivotal role in conveying emotions and establishing personal identity. The visibility of acne often leads to heightened self-consciousness, making social interactions more challenging. In Ayurvedic literature, Yauvana Pidika, as described by various Acharyas, exhibit features similar to acne vulgaris. Yauvanapidika, due to its minimum causative factors, signs and symptoms and less severity is mentioned as one of the Kshudrarogas in Ayurveda Samhitas. A 19-year-old female patient who was apparently normal before eight months developed multiple pus-filled acne on her both cheeks associated with pain and redness had consulted virtually. She was having regular tea consumption more than twice a day, a mixed diet, and excess consumption of fried, oily, and junk food. She used variety of cream, ointments and home remedies other but didn’t find any changes. She was under Ayurvedic management for one month, and observed satisfactory changes. This paper highlights the Ayurvedic management of Yauvana Pidika.
