BACKGROUND: Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been used for acne, with various combinations of photosensitizers and light sources.
OBJECTIVE: We evaluated the effectiveness and safety of indocyanine green (ICG) and intense pulsed light (IPL) in the treatment of acne.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 1,213 patients with facial acne were retrospectively reviewed. Patients received three or five treatments of ICG and IPL at two-week intervals. Clinical response to treatment was assessed by comparing pre- and posttreatment clinical photographs and patient satisfaction scores.
RESULTS: Marked to excellent improvement was noted in 483 of 1,213 (39.8%) patients, while minimal to moderate improvement was achieved in the remaining 730 (60.2%) patients. Patient satisfaction scores revealed that 197 (16.3%) of 1,213 patients were highly satisfied, 887 (73.1%) were somewhat satisfied, and 129 (10.6%) were unsatisfied. There were no significant side effects.
CONCLUSION: These results suggest that PDT with ICG and IPL can be effectively and safely used in the treatment of acne.
