Acne vulgaris is multifactorial in origin where Propionibacterium acnes and altered keratinisation are some of the factors which contribute to the inflammation and obstruction of the pilosebaceous unit. Acne causes the formation of pleomorphic lesions like comedones, papules, pustules, nodules and cysts which may lead to scarring. Lesions of acne are predominantly seen on the face, chest, back, shoulders and upper arms. The aim of the study is to understand the psychological impact that acne vulgaris has on patients in a tertiary care hospital. The study will be carried out over a period of two years from May 21 to May 23 in Terna Speciality Hospital and Research Centre in Nerul, Navi Mumbai, in the Department of Dermatology, Venereology and Leprosy in collaboration with the Department of Psychiatry in Terna Speciality Hospital and Research Centre in Nerul, Navi Mumbai. This study is done to get a deeper look at the psyche of the people suffering from it and what can be done to manage it better.
