Intertek can run clinical trials for acne products which include patient recruitment solutions and experienced assessors.
Acne vulgaris is experienced by up to 90% of people during adolescence, with varying severity and with some people suffering into middle age. Factors which play a role in the development of spots are among others, sebum production, hormones and hereditary bacterial colonisation of the skin. Boys are more affected than girls.
