Holistic Treatment of Acne Vulgaris: Integrating the Complete Repertory for Quality-of-life Enhancement

Acne vulgaris, a common dermatological condition, significantly impacts the quality of life, particularly in adolescents and young adults. This study investigates the effectiveness of individualized homeopathic treatments selected using the Complete Repertory in alleviating acne symptoms and enhancing patients' quality of life. Over a period of 4-6 months, 101 patients, aged 15 to 25, were treated using the Global Acne Grading System (GAGS) and the Cardiff Acne Disability Index (CADI) to evaluate progress. Significant improvements in both physical symptoms and psychological well-being were observed, suggesting that personalized homeopathic regimens could be a viable holistic approach (Schroyens, 2018).
