Fighting acne for the fighting forces.

Abstract:

:Acne vulgaris is one of the most common dermatologic diseases, ranging from comedonal or inflammatory papules to large, painful, disfiguring cysts. Numerous treatment approaches are available, each with their own risks and benefits that must be weighed when selecting the best option for an individual patient. Active-duty military servicemembers face additional levels of complexity when pursuing acne therapy. Untreated acne may interfere with their assigned duties, while various therapies also may limit their medical readiness and fitness for duty. We present a review of various acne treatment modalities with a focus on the military population. Additionally, we present a case in which the pulsed dye laser (PDL) was successfully used to treat inflammatory acne in an active-duty servicemember to highlight the use of PDL as an available and effective treatment option for acne in this population.
