چکیده
Acne vulgaris is the most common dermatological issue seen by physicians. It is a condition that can cause a lot of distress, resulting in lowered self-esteem in some. Mental health scores among acne patients are higher compared to a number of other chronic medical conditions.[1] Often, patients will seek pharmaceutical treatments such as the oral contraceptive pill, spironolactone, or Accutane in order to seek some relief for their skin, which can come with nutrient depletions, risks, and side effects. Naturopathic medicine aims to target the cause of acne and offers safe and effective treatments for long-term resolution of this skin condition.
