The recent innovative interventions in the acnes (acne vulgaris, acne rosacea and acne inversa) have not occurred in their management; rather the major changes are occurring in how the disorders and the individual lesions are seen to originate and develop. To finalize the optimal management of each of the acnes will ultimately require that every step in the aetiopathogenesis described and postulated here will need to be tested, validated, and then appropriately countered with environmental and lifestyle adjustments that will lead ultimately to prevention of 'the blight of youth' and its variants.
