TREATMENT OF ACNE COMPLICATED BY CONCOMITANT MYCOBIOTA
The purpose of this study was to analyze the success of acne treatment in patients with concomitant mycobiota. The study was conducted in 2013-2018 and included 96 patients aged 13 to 36 years with papulopustular forms of acne with concomitant mycobiota of the skin. The advantages of therapy in patients with papulopustular acne and concomitant mycobiota with the inclusion of antifungal drugs were determined. Clinical recovery in such patients was achieved significantly more often than in patients receiving only standard therapy. Clinical signs and complaints in patients with concomitant mycobiota receiving antimicotics regressed significantly faster. Most papules and papulopustules were resolved, sebum was normalized, its color was restored, itching and peeling disappeared. The clinic and complaints in patients with concomitant mycobiota without antifungal external therapy persisted longer. In addition, the restoration of normal skin microbiota was more successful with the additionaluse of advanced therapeutic algorithm with the inclusion of antimicotics than with the use of standard therapy only. The results of treatment are comparable with the results in acne patients without concomitant mycobiota.
