- Lactobacillus-based probiotics were evaluated for their efficacy in treating acne vulgaris.
- The study involved a systematic review and meta-analysis of five randomized controlled trials with 332 participants.
- Results showed no significant reduction in inflammatory, non-inflammatory, or total acne lesion counts compared to placebo or benzoyl peroxide.
- The findings suggest that Lactobacillus probiotics do not provide significant clinical benefits for acne vulgaris.
- The study highlights the need for further research on microbiome-based therapies for acne.
