| Abstract | ||||
| Background: Post Acne Erythema (PAE) is a common sequelae of acne inflammation. Time may help some acne erythema lesions clear up. Although the inflammation caused by acne has subsided, the cosmetic fallout of treatment for these visible red markings, remains a therapeutic issue. Objective: Review of the literature on updated management lines of post acne erythema. Methods: We scoured medical papers and databases including PubMed, Google Scholar, and Science Direct for information on: Post acne erythema, its management, and its treatment. However, only the most recent or comprehensive study conducted between September 2013 and March 2022 was considered. The authors also analyzed references from similar literature. Documents written in languages other than English have been overlooked because of a lack of funding to translate them. It was commonly recognized that scientific research did not include things like unpublished publications, oral presentations, conference abstracts, or dissertations. Conclusion: PAE has been treated with a variety of approaches, from topical therapies to surgical interventions. In the same way as treating acne lesions is essential, so is attending to post-acne effects (PAE) and scarring. Different forms of vitamin C and topical treatments such 0.025% retinoic acid, 12.5% glycolic acid, 0.2% brimonidine tartrate, and 5% tranexamic acid solution have all been explored. Vascular lasers have been used to treat PAE, although most studies have only looked at their effectiveness in treating active inflammatory acne. | ||||
