Acne Management in an Immunosuppressed Renal Transplant Patient: A Case Report.

Acne vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the pilosebaceous unit with multiple therapeutic options; however, management may be challenging in patients in whom systemic therapies are not advisable or are preferably avoided due to underlying clinical conditions. Here, we report a case of a 27-year-old male with a history of kidney transplantation on chronic immunosuppressive therapy who presented with persistent moderate inflammatory acne. To avoid systemic therapy, treatment was performed using a 1726-nm sebum-selective laser. This case represents the first reported use of this technology in Mexico and highlights its potential as a safe and effective therapeutic alternative in complex clinical scenarios.
