The poor tolerability of the actual treatments (secondary inflammation) is a hindrance to therapy. Retinaldehyde (RAL), a precursor of retinoic acid, has shown depigmenting activity. Glycolic acid (GA) decreases the excess of pigment by a wounding and re-epithelization process. Thus, a synergistic effect was expected from the combination of RAL 0.1% and GA 6% RALGA (Diacn\u00e9al&lt;sup&gt;\u00ae&lt;\/sup&gt;) in the treatment of acne vulgaris and PIH. Efficacy results of preclinical and clinical trials tend to confirm the expectations for both acne and PIH treatment. A good tolerability was observed. In conclusion, the cosmetic cream Diacn\u00e9al is a well-tolerated treatment for the prevention and healing of PIH in acne patients.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000081501","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,2,22]],"date-time":"2005-02-22T07:23:46Z","timestamp":1109057026000},"page":"39-45","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["RALGA (Diacn\u00e9al&lt;sup&gt;\u00ae&lt;\/sup&gt;), a Retinaldehyde and Glycolic Acid Association and Postinflammatory Hyperpigmentation in Acne \u2013 A Review"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"210","author":[{"given":"A.D.","family":"Katsambas","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,2,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046%2Fj.0926-9959.2001.00011.x"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0278-2391%2898%2990467-0"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2F0738-081X%2889%2990052-7"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046%2Fj.1524-4725.2002.01081.x"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000163673"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0006-291X%2888%2980562-X"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056%2FNEJM199305203282002"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0190-9622%2898%2970141-0"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0190-9622%2896%2990443-0"},{"key":"ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000067820"},{"key":"ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2F1076-0512%2896%2900065-9"},{"key":"ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2Fj.1540-9740.2004.03244.x"},{"key":"ref13","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0190-9622%2898%2970138-0"},{"key":"ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1067%2Fmjd.2003.618"},{"key":"ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0190-9622%2898%2970406-2"},{"key":"ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2165%2F00128071-200001020-00002"},{"key":"ref17","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2F1523-1747.ep12412861"},{"key":"ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000051376"},{"key":"ref19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000051374"},{"key":"ref20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000051375"},{"key":"ref21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000063903"},{"key":"ref22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0190-9622%2898%2970270-1"},{"key":"ref23","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046%2Fj.1365-2230.1999.00499.x"},{"key":"ref24","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS0190-9622%2897%2980290-3"},{"key":"ref25","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2F1076-0512%2896%2900061-1"},{"key":"ref26","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2F1076-0512%2896%2900067-2"},{"key":"ref27","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001%2Farchderm.111.1.40"},{"key":"ref28","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159%2F000069938"},{"key":"ref29","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS1076-0512%2897%2982718-5"},{"key":"ref30","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2F1523-1747.ep12365603"},{"key":"ref31","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111%2F1523-1747.ep12874568"},{"key":"ref32","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001%2Farchderm.132.6.631"},{"key":"ref33","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016%2FS1076-0512%2898%2900087-9"}],"container-title":["Dermatology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/81501","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/www.karger.com\/Article\/Pdf\/81501","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,24]],"date-time":"2025-04-24T03:45:37Z","timestamp":1745466337000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000081501"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2005]]},"references-count":33,"journal-issue":{"issue":"Suppl. 1","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,2,1]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000081501","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1018-8665","1421-9832"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1018-8665","type":"print"},{"value":"1421-9832","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2005]]}}}
