  • Subject must be in general good health and free from any clinically significant disease, other than acne, that might interfere with the study evaluations.
  • Female subjects of childbearing potential (excluding women who are surgically sterilized or postmenopausal for at least 1 year), in addition to having a negative urine pregnancy test, must be willing to use an acceptable form of birth control during the study from the day of the first dose administration to 30 days after the last administration of study drug.
  • Subjects who use make-up must have used the same brands/types of make-up for a minimum period of 14 days prior to study entry and must agree to use the same make-up brand/type and frequency of use throughout the study.
  • Subjects must agree not to have any other procedures affecting skin quality (microdermabrasion, peels, acne treatments, etc.) for the duration of the study.

  • Subjects who cannot understand or are not willing to comply with the requirements of the study.
  • Presence of any skin condition on the face that would interfere with the diagnosis or assessment of acne.

  • The use of estrogens or oral contraceptives for less than 3 months prior to baseline.
  • The use within 1 month prior to baseline of:
