Abstract:Objective To observe the clinical effect of isotretinoic acid combined with ozone hydrotherapy on acne vulgaris. Methods 112 patients with acne vulgaris were retrospectively analyzed and divided into observation group (56 cases) and control group (56 cases). The patients in the control group received oral intervention with isotretinoic acid capsules, while the patients in the observation group received ozone hydrotherapy intervention on the basis of isotretinoic acid capsules, and the clinical effects of the two groups were observed. Results The total effective rate of patients in the observation group was 92.86%, significantly higher than 73.21% in the control group. The regression rate of white head acne, black head acne, sebum overflow, papules and pustules in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group. There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups. Conclusion Isoretinoic acid combined with ozone hydrotherapy can significantly improve the efficacy of acne vulgaris and promote the regression of skin lesions, which is suitable for clinical application.
