Brief Summary

Acne vulgaris (commonly called acne) is a common human skin problem, characterized by areas of skin with multiple non inflammatory follicular papules or comedones and by inflammatory papules, pustules, and nodules in its more severe forms. Propionibacterium acnes is the principal organism associated with inflammatory acne lesions. Acne is caused by the combination of too much sebum and a buildup of dead skin cells.

Acne vulgaris mostly affects the areas of skin with the densest population of sebaceous follicles; these areas include the face, the upper part of the chest, and the back. Acne occurs most commonly during adolescence, affecting more than 96% of teenagers, and frequently continues into adulthood.

Acne can have a significant physical, emotional, and social impact on an individual. Today there are many agents being used for relief from acne.

The product, **CLEARICA®****ANTI-ACNE CREAM,** is claimed to have anti acne effect, and this will be evaluated during the course of this study

Result: The study was completed with 33 complete cases and no adverse events.
