By compromising face, thorax and back, with the risk of permanent scars, it has a negative impact on the quality of life. Effective, safe and early treatment is the key to remission, while decreasing the risk of physical and/or emotional sequelae.

This article intends to disseminate it with an updated review on a rational, safe and effective acne treatment. |
