Acne on @entity2118 in Africans and their descendants, as well as in @entity1 with a skin phototype above IV. Acne is common in Africans and is often the primary reason for consulting a dermatologist. Acne on @entity2118 is principally inflammatory acne. The sequelae in terms of pigmentation are often the main reason for consulting a dermatologist, and take precedence over the acne itself. Research is needed into cosmetic acne and @entity134 -induced @entity1909 , which are common in users of skin bleaching products. The treatment for acne in @entity2118 involves the same medicines as used in acne in white skin. Of the available topical treatments, @entity18575 is particularly effective for the inflammatory component. @entity4878 act on both the retentional and inflammatory components of acne and have skin bleaching properties. Tetracyclines are essential on initiation of treatment, regardless of severity. They prevent an inflammatory episode at the onset of acne and rapidly improve the inflammatory component. @entity1214 should not be prescribed in African @entity1 . Fatal cases of @entity56 have been described, with a particular frequency in this population. @entity3403 is effective, but has photosensitizing properties. @entity23717 is well tolerated. @entity10211 is indicated for nodular acne. The same precautions for use should be followed as in all cases of acne. The skin bleaching effects are considerable. Photoprotection should generally be imposed, but, in @entity1 with black skin, photoprotective agents are often not applied. The administration of a cosmetic containing a skin bleaching agent combined with a photoprotective agent for application in the morning, instead of hydrating cream, is acceptable to @entity1 , improves compliance, and is effective.
