Acne and Acne Scarring

Acne and Acne Scarring

Acne vulgaris is one of the most prevalent dermatological conditions worldwide, affecting individuals across various age groups and often leading to significant physical and psychological impacts. While commonly associated with adolescence, acne can persist into adulthood and may result in long-term complications such as acne scarring and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Advances in dermatological research have enhanced our understanding of the underlying mechanisms of acne, including hormonal influences, inflammation, microbial interactions, and genetic factors. Emerging therapeutic approaches, innovative skincare technologies, laser treatments, regenerative therapies, and personalized treatment strategies are transforming the management of acne and acne scars. This session will explore the latest developments in acne pathogenesis, prevention, diagnosis, treatment modalities, and scar management, highlighting evidence-based approaches and future directions in clinical dermatology.
