Author ProfileAbstract
Acne associates with increased sebum production, bacterial colonization,
and ongoing inflammation. Fluorescent light energy has reported clinical
effect on acne. The complexity of acne often makes combination therapy
highly beneficial. We here show that combining FLE with low-dose
isotretinoin or tetracycline leads to clearance of acne without
significant adverse effects.21 Jun 2020Submitted to Clinical Case Reports 24 Jun 2020Submission Checks Completed
