Abstract

Objective: Follicular hyperkeratinization and Propionibacterium acnes colonization are mainly responsible for the pathogenesis of acne. As the relationship between vitamin levels and skin diseases is not fully understood, plasma levels of vitamins A and E in resistant acne patients were evaluated in this study.
