Abstract :

Starting from the great saying “FACE IS THE INDEX OF MIND”, I have met multiple cases of face related complain in my practice. Acne is one of them. It affiliates 89% of population of 17 year age group. This condition usually starts at the onset of adolescence and usually resolves while the mid–20. But in some patients it may persist up to the age of 35 years or more. The peek incidence and severity occurs between 14 to 17 years in female and 16 to 19 years in male. In Ayurveda acne is termed as yuvan pidika which is first described by Archarya Sushruta. Ayurveda has most promising outcome in the field of cosmetology due to its unique concept about beauty and effective and long lasting therapy. Yuvan pidika develops due to vitiation of vata, kapha and rakta and for its treatment vata kapha shamaka and rakta shodhak drugs are required. This study shows the efficacy of Ayurvedic drugs in the treatment of yuvan pidika and the remarkable changes which were seen following therapy.
