Abstract
Acne vulgaris is a chronic and multifactorial inflammatory disease of pilosebaceous follicles. It is extremely common in puberty and estimated to affect 90% of the adolescents. It causes cosmetic disfigurement and provokes many psychological problems in them. The consequences can be devastating leading to embarrassment, absenteeism, depression and overall reduction in the quality of life. Homoeopathic medicines have been found to be effective in alleviating the symptoms and also in improving the quality of life of the adolescence.
