Acne is a chronic inflammatory disease of the pilosebaceus unit, seen mostly in adolescence, and its treatment involves use of a variety of topical and systemic agents. Alongside these treatments, patients should also be provided with recommendations on skin hygiene and care. Such recommendations have been shown to increase patient adherence to treatment and to improve treatment outcomes. Therefore, it is important to inform acne patients about daily skin care to enhance treatment without increasing acne lesions and to help them choose appropriate cosmetic products.
