Clinical and dermoscopic evaluation of combined (salicylic acid 20% and azelaic acid 20%) versus trichloroacetic acid 25% chemical peel in acne: a RCT.

CONCLUSION: Chemical peeling is effective in controlling mild-moderate acne in SPT III-IV. Combined SA 20% and AA 20% is recommended at early stage of treatment if patients have more inflammatory lesions, while TCA is recommended if patients have more non-inflammatory lesions.
