Brief Summary

  1. 1.Acne is a chronic inflammatory disease involving the hair follicles and sebaceous glands, characterized by acne, papules, pustules, nodules, and cysts. Acne often occurs in sebum overflow areas such as the face, chest, back and so on. It is a common skin lesion, which not only affects physical health, but also brings psychological disorders and psychosocial problems to patients. At present, the common treatment methods of acne include health education, topical drugs, oral drugs and medical cosmetic treatment.
  2. 2.Intense pulsed light has been widely accepted as a non-invasive and non-serious treatment for acne. The M22 strong light and laser system Acne filter has a wavelength of 400-600/800-1200nm.
  3. 3.Although there are many treatments for acne, the slow response and easy recurrence of acne are still common problems that trouble doctors and patients. We clinically use drugs combined with intense pulsed light treatment, and the efficacy of the patients is fair, but currently lack of clinical research data support. This study intends to evaluate the effectiveness of different methods in the treatment of moderate and severe acne by evaluating different bands of intense pulsed light combined with drugs, and to observe whether the treatment with oral tetracycline antibiotics combined with intense pulsed light is safe.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Acne IGA rating scale

    The severity of the facial rash is evaluated according to the number of skin rashes, with a score of 0-5

    change from week0 to week24

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Pain score

    week0,week4,week8

Study Arms (3)

oral medication

EXPERIMENTAL

just oral minocycline hydrochloride capsules (100mg/ time, once per day),

Drug: Minocycline hydrochloride capsules were taken orally

Intense Pulsed Light single filter

EXPERIMENTAL

Intense pulsed Acne filter

Drug: Minocycline hydrochloride capsules were taken orally

Intense Pulsed Light two filters

EXPERIMENTAL

Intense pulsed light Acne filter and another filter (560nm, 590nm or 640nm filter)

Drug: Minocycline hydrochloride capsules were taken orally

Interventions

Lumenis OneTM, OPT tender system produced by American Medical Science Company; Use four of the filters. Acne filter has a wavelength of 400-600/800-1200nm. Three pulses were used for treatment, with a pulse width of 5.0ms, a pulse delay of 30ns, and an energy density of 15j /cm2. The instrument parameters were selected according to the skin lesion characteristics, age and tolerance.
