The present method involves the photodynamic treatment of acne vulgaris. The method involves the topical administration of a photosensitizer composition comprising hydrophobic green porphyrins such as lemuteporfin, polyethylene glycol and skin penetration enhancers such as oleyl alcohol and TRANSCUTOLTM to acne-affected skin and subsequent exposure of that skin to energy of a wavelength of activating the photosensitizer. |
