Acne vulgaris is one of the most often diagnosed dermatological diseases. With some people, it can appear after a period of puberty, however with the others; it can emerge in their young age and last continuously in their adulthood. Current research has shown that acne among mature patients occurs usually after the age of 25.
The purpose of the following work it to evaluate the treatment procedures based on Ferulic acid application and d`Arsonwal's high frequency currents in the context of reduction of exanthema in inflammatory and noninflammatory stage among patients above the age of 25 with mild and moderate type of acne.
60 women took part in the research and they were randomly divided into two groups. Ferulic acid, manually applied on faces, was used on probands from the first group. On the other hand, the probands from the second group were treated with d`Arsonwal's currents, by using contact method in the area of skin on the face.
The research conducted, proved positive effect on skin face of both Ferulic acid and d`Arsonwal's high frequency currents. As a result of application of one or the other series of treatments, the number of exanthema both inflammatory and non-inflammatory was significantly reduced.
Combined treatment of acne vulgaris may be supported with success by procedures working externally on skin, such as emission of d`Arsonwal's currents and Ferulic acid application.
