“…Dietary changes might also be considered as part of the holistic treatment of acne. A high glycemic index and increased daily glycemic intake are associated with a greater incidence and severity of acne while intake of dairy products may be influenced by other factors such as sex and ethnicity 25 . As described below, additional acne treatments target one or more acne‐related factors, such as follicular hyperkeratinization, the presence of Cutibacterium acnes , increased sebum production, and inflammation 26,27 …”

BackgroundThe popularity of social media appears to be increasing the acceptance of cosmetic treatments, prompting more consumers to seek cosmetic treatments. As the estimated prevalence of acne vulgaris among adult women may be as high as 54%, acne is commonly observed among patients presenting for cosmetic treatments. Concomitant treatment of acne in the aesthetic patient population will improve overall clinical outcomes.AimsThe goal of this work was to deliver a high‐quality ethical and evidence‐based educational program to physicians and adjunctive health care providers to advance patient care.MethodsThis paper is based on a webcam presentation with roundtable discussion by several notable experts in their field.ResultsA range of topical medications, injectable products, chemical peels, and energy‐based devices are available for treating acne vulgaris. In most instances, these are compatible with rejuvenation procedures in the aesthetic patient.ConclusionThe growth of social media is raising awareness of aesthetic procedures and appears to be increasing the number of patients seeking aesthetic treatment. Educating patients about the importance of treating acne vulgaris can improve overall treatment outcomes. In most instances, the presence of acne is not a barrier to aesthetic care.

“…The role of lifestyle factors is debated but a recent systematic review reported the pro‐acnegenic effect of diets containing foods with a high glycaemic index and dairy products, though this is potentiated by gender and ethnicity 7 . Other potential risk factors include obesity, smoking and abnormal gut microbiota, though evidence from different sources is conflicting 8 …”

“…The GI is a scoring system on a scale of 1 to 100 to determine how quickly carbohydrates from a given product are digested, absorbed, and metabolised. Diets with a relatively high GI (being above 55) have been shown to be associated with mediocre glycaemic control, increased postprandial insulin levels, and elevated IGF-1 levels, whereas diets with a relatively low GI result in decreased fasting IGF-1 [22][23][24]. Equally, people who regularly consume dairy have elevated serum IGF-1 and insulin levels in comparison to those who do not consume dairy, and the consumption of whey or casein, the protein components of dairy, is linked to increased IGF-1 and insulin values [25][26][27].…”

Acne vulgaris is a widespread a chronic inflammatory dermatosis that affects millions of people around the world, which has a significant influence on patients’ standard of living. The progression of this dermatosis results in the appearance of inflammatory and non-inflammatory changes, and, in severe cases, disfiguring scars and hyperpigmentation. The aetiopathogenesis of acne is complex. It involves a complex interaction of many different factors, both endo- and exogenous in their effect on the hair and sebaceous unit. Genetic predisposition, hormones, the skin and gut microbiome, psychological stress, air pollutants, aggressive facial products, and certain medications are cited as factors influencing acne formation. The link between nutrition and acne is extensively debated for many years and is still relatively controversial. Diet is commonly recognised to have a direct relationship with certain biochemical markers and the transcription of genes related to sebaceous gland function, and the proliferation of bacteria and inflammation that encourage the progression of the disease. In this review, the authors take a closer look at the existing scientific reports on the involvement of nutrition in the development of acne vulgaris.
