Summary
This study will look at 200 people aged 18 to 25 with mild, moderate, or severe acne, plus healthy volunteers, to understand how acne develops in Singapore's tropical climate. Researchers will analyze skin bacteria, immune responses, and use AI to grade acne from photos. The goal is to find population-specific clues for better acne management.
