Abstract
Although acne is principally a disorder of adolescence, the prevalence of adult acne is increasing. Adult acne has been defined as the presence of acne beyond the age of 25 years. Acne in adult women may have different clinical features i.e., more involvement of lower face, association with hair loss, premenstrual flare, signs and symptoms of insulin resistance, dyslipidaemias. Various studies have shown that a significant percentage of adult women with acne failed to respond to treatment with systemic antibiotics and isotretinoin which indicates a need for treatment alternatives with improved effectiveness and acceptable side effects for resistant acne. This study aims to study the different clinicoepidemiological features of adult acne.
