Abstract

The goal of this review is to look at the epidemiology, aetiology, pathophysiology, categorization, and therapy options for acne vulgaris. Acne is a multifactorial, polymorphic inflammatory condition of the pilosebaceous gland that manifests itself as skin lesions. It begins when a child reaches puberty. Interference in the sebaceous gland, which is linked to hyperseborrhoea, hormone dysregulation, microenvironment interconnection with neucleopeptide, variation in sebum fatty acid composition, follicular hyperkeratinizations, disfunction of innate and adaptive immunity, and induction of inflammation are all key mechanisms in the development of acneiform. The treatment of acne vulgaris is influenced by allopathic, ayurvedic, and homoeopathic medicine systems.
