Acne vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory skin disease mainly affecting adolescents and young adults. When evaluating the acne patient, the questions arise of whether laboratory evaluations are justified for acne vulgaris either in terms of diagnosis, monitoring during treatment, or for a hormonal work-up. This chapter addresses these questions aiming to provide available scientific data regarding laboratory evaluations for acne.
