Objectives:
Explain etiology and Pathogenesis of Acne vulgaris.
Label different types of Acne.
List available modalities to

Compare acne to rosacea.

5. Acne vulgaris Definition:
a chronic inflammatory disease of pilosebaceous unit.
It is a polymorphic disorder(comedons, papules , pustules, nodules, pseudocysts, and sometimes scarring)
The sites of predilection face, upper trunk and upper arms.
It usually affect adolescent.
is of multifactorial aetiology.

6. The etiology and Pathogenesis of Acne vulgaris:
*These changes occur on a hormonal background of androgen.
I – Increase sebum production.
II- Obstruction of the pilosebaceous duct (comedogenesis).
III- colonization of the duct with (P.acnes).
IV- The production of inflammation.

8. Other factors affecting the pathogenesis:
A. Endogenous factors
Genetics.
Stress and anxiety.++
Menstruation.+
B- Exogenous factors:
UV. radiation.
Hot humid environment and sweating.+
Diet.*’’
Occupation.

9. Clinical Presentation of Acne:
Prevalence: Acne may be the most frequent reason for seeing a dermatologist, over 90% of males and 80% of females are affected during there teen age.
Age of onset: Acne develops earlier in females than in males that may reflect the earlier onset of puberty. Mean age at onset of acne was 12 ± years in girls and 15± years in boys.
Sites of distribution:
Acne predominantly affects the face (99%), the back (60%), chest (15%), and upper arms are also affected.

10. A – Non inflammatory lesions: (comedones) which consist of:
The types of lesions in Acne:
A – Non inflammatory lesions: (comedones) which consist of:
White heads (closed comedones).
Black heads (open comedones).
B – Inflammatory lesions include:
The superficial lesions are usually papules and pustules.

Complications of acne: 1- Scarring. 2-Psychological impact. Types of acne scarring: Atrophic scars. Ice pick scars. Hypertrophic scars. Keloid scars. .

17. Differential diagnosis of acne:
1-Rosocea.
2-Perioral dermatitis.
3-Pitrosporum folliculitis.
4-Folliculitis barbae and Psudofolliculitis barbae.
5-Acneform drug eraption
6-Acneform secondary syphilis.

18. Treatment of Acne: A-General measures. B-Topical treatment.
C-Systemic therapy.
The choice of therapy.
Mild acne:topical therapy.
Moderate acne:topical and oral therapies.
Severe acne: isotretinoin unless it is contraindicated.

19. A - General measures:
Gentle cleansing.
Avoidness of comedogenic applications.
Reassurance .
B- Topical treatments:
1- Those directed towards microorganisms.
2- Those directed towards comedogenesis.

20. 1- Topical treatments directed towards microorganisms:
Topical antibiotics:
erythromycin (1.5-2% gel or cream).
clindamycin (1% lotion)
Benzyl peroxide.

21. 2-Topical treatment directed towards comedogenesis:
Retinoids:
1- Anti-seborrheic effect.
2- Anti-comedonal effect.
3- Anti-inflammatory effect.
4- Inhibiting the growth of P. acne .
Tretinoin may be used as solution, cream or gel. It is available in % , 0.05% and 0.1% concentration (2). Tazarotene (0.1% gel) applied once daily.
Adapalene: Adapalene (0.1% gel).
Azelaic acid: cream with 20%

22. C) Systemic Treatment of acne:
1-Those directed against microorganisms (antibiotics).
2-Those directed against comedogenesis and seborrhea (retinoids).
3-Those acting on hormonal bases (antiandrogens).

23. Systemic antibiotic:. Moderate or severe inflammatory acne
Systemic antibiotic: * Moderate or severe inflammatory acne. *Acne resistant to topical treatment. *Acne that covers large area of the body Tetracycline: Tetracycline dose for an adult is 250 mg four times daily. Doxycycline: It is usually given in a dose of 100 mg once or twice daily . Minocyclin: The usual dose is mg once or twice daily. Erythromycin and Azithromysin: Clindamycin: In a dose of mg.

24. 2- Systemic Retinoids: Indications: 1- Severe acne.
(Isotretinoin) is the single most effective treatment.
Indications:
1- Severe acne.
2- Moderate unresponsive acne.
3- Acne with scarring.
4- Acne with severe depression or dysmorphophobia.
5- High sebum excretion rate.
6- Some unusual variants, such as acne fulminans, gram-negative folliculitis .

25. 3- Hormonal therapy: Acne is not responding to conventional therapy.
If there are signs of hyperandrogenism.
A- Androgen production inhibitors: glucocorticoids and oral contraceptives.
B-Androgen receptor blockers: cyproterone acetate, spironolactone and flutamide.

MILD

29. Rosacea (Latin: “like roses”) is a chronic inflammatoy disorder of the facial pilosebaceous units, with an increased reactivity of capillaries to heat, leading to flushing and telangiectasia...
Age of incidence between 30 to 50 years,
Sex Females predominantly;
Race WHITE peoples.
DISTRIBUTION Characteristic is a a symmetrical localization on the face
Rosacea

30. *Episodic erythema, “flushing and blushing”
Skin Symptoms/ facial appearance?; Flushing, “heat” in the face.
Stages of Evolution //
episodic (flushing) in response to
(hot liquids), spicy foods; alcohol ,exposure to sun, heat and emotional stress.
*Episodic erythema, “flushing and blushing”
Stage I: Persistent erythema with telangiectases
Stage II: Persistent erythema, telangiectases, papules, tiny pustules
Stage III: Persistent deep erythema, dense telangiectases, papules, pustules, nodules;
marked sebaceous hyperplasia edema of the central part of the face "glandular rosacea"
causing disfigurement of the nose {Rhinophyma (enlarged nose) }

32. Eye Lesions/// “Red” eyes ,chronic blepharitis, conjunctivitis, and episcleritis. Rosacea keratitis Differential Diagnosis Acne, (note: in rosacea No comedones) Perioral dermatitis, folliculitis, and SLE Dermatopathology 1-Dilated capillaries. 2-Marked sebaceous gland hyperplasia 3-Inflammatory infiltrate with foci of neutrophils within the follicle 4 -epithelioid granuloma without caseation,

33. Reduction of alcoholic and hot beverages.
Course
Prolonged. Recurrences are common. After a few years, the disease tends to disappear spontaneously.
Management
Reduction of alcoholic and hot beverages.
Topical :\Metronidazole gel or cream, 0.75 %, twice daily orTopical antibiotics (e.g., erythromycin gel).

34. Systemic: oral antibiotics: Tetracycline, 250mg 4td
Systemic: oral antibiotics: Tetracycline, 250mg 4td. until clear; then gradually reduce to once-daily doses of 250 to 500 mg.
Minocycline and doxycycline, 50 to 100 mg twice daily.
Oral Isotretinoin
Rhinophyma, is treated successfully by surgery or laser surgery.
