Study Purpose: This study aims to compare the effects of a dapsone gel and trichloroacetic acid (TCA) peel for treating acne vulgaris, a common skin condition causing pimples due to blocked skin pores.
Key Points:
- Study Duration: Participation involves a commitment over a period of time, but the exact length will be discussed with the study team.
- Visits Required: You will need to visit the study site multiple times for assessments, but the specific number of visits will be confirmed by the study team.
- Eligibility: Anyone 12 years or older with mild to moderate acne who hasn't used acne treatments in the past two weeks may qualify.
Eligibility Criteria: Both boys and girls can join if they have mild to moderate acne. Participants should not have used any acne medication recently and must not be pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a history of certain types of scars.
This study does not allow those with severe acne or those taking certain medications like contraceptive pills or isotretinoin (a strong acne medicine) to participate.
