Individuals with acne present not only to dermatologists, but also to internists, family medicine physicians, pediatricians, estheticians, and beauty counters alike in search of a treatment. The diagnosis of acne is relatively straightforward, leading many to believe that acne is a simple condition. However, the pathophysiology of acne is anything but simple. Decades of research has ultimately revealed a complex interaction of pathogenic factors that lead to acne. This includes sebum production, C. acnes colonization, inflammation, and follicular hyperkeratinization. Understanding each of these features has been fundamental to the development of anti-acne medications. Topical agents are often used as an initial therapy given their safety and efficacy. While some topical therapies have been used for decades, new creams, gels, and lotions continue to be added to the list of approved acne treatments. Given the number of topical acne products on the market, we present an updated review of the current landscape of topical acne treatments and how each choice functions mechanistically to fight against acne.

Managing S. aureuss-driven AD in clinical practice remains problematic due to complications such as AD exacerbation, impetigo, abscesses, and invasive infections. This project used a modified Delphi process comprising face-to-face discussions followed by a blinded vote to define 5 final consensus statements. A panel of 6 pediatric dermatologists developed a consensus on S. aureus-driven AD exacerbation, challenges in current treatments for AD with secondary bacterial infections, and new developments to improve patient care and outcomes. The panel's 5 consensus statements provide recommendations for dermatologists, pediatricians, and healthcare providers treating patients with secondary infected AD. These recommendations underscore the importance of recognizing and managing S. aureus skin infection in AD clinical practice and promoting antibiotic stewardship to mitigate resistance. The panel defined a significant unmet need for a single topical AD therapy effective against all symptoms, including pruritus, S. aureus-driven AD exacerbation, infection, and inflammation, across AD severity levels.
