Research Notes on Vitamin A and Acne
Vitamin A is important in maintaining good skin health and for strengthening skin's protective tissue. Nutritional deficiency of vitamin A can cause acne due to increased oil production in the skin. Acne and other skin disorders are commonly treated with vitamin A derivatives (synthetic compounds similar to vitamin A) such as tretinoin and isotretinoin.
