The intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy has three mechanisms of action in acne vulgaris: photochemical, photoimmunological, and photothermal. In this clinical trial, 47 patients with facial inflammatory acne lesions, ages ranging from 15 to 40 years, were enrolled. Patients were categorized into two groups: (a) 20 patients in Group A treated with IPL for 3 sessions, 3 weeks apart, (b) and 27 patients in Group B treated with benzoyl peroxide (BPO) 2.5% gel daily at night for 9 weeks. Follow up was done at 3 weeks after the end of treatment. The effect of treatment was evaluated objectively according to total lesion counting and digital photographic assessment and subjectively according to the patients' satisfaction. IPL is an effective and well-tolerated method for the treatment of inflammatory facial acne like BPO. Therefore, the IPL can be used as a standard therapy for inflammatory acne vulgaris.
