Gram-Negative Folliculitis
August 8th, 2007 Posted in Acne Types
Gram-Negative Folliculitis is when long time treatment becomes a threat to the skin’s health and not its healer.
This condition represents a bacterial infection that is possibly occurring as a complication result from a long term antibiotic treatment of Acne Vulgaris. Although it is a rare condition, you must be aware that Gram-Negative Folliculitis exists and can easily become reality.
The condition is characterized by pustules and cysts and one does not know whether it is more common in women or men. Isotretinoin is also used in fighting the Gram-Negative Folliculitis.
