Abstract
Aim To determine the relation between basal metobolic rate and acne vulgaris in the teenage population. Material and Methods We studied basal metabolic rate in 106 boarding school boys, all 14 years old (53 with acne, 53 without acne) .BMR measurement is done from 8 points, 4 extremities and body with bioimpedance device In Body 230. Results In the group with acne Basal Metabolic Rate was higher than control group . There is a significant difference between two groups (p=0.009). Conclusion Acne vulgaris increases basal metabolic rate in this young population. The reasons of that may be stress, social anxiety and social avoidance etc. Consequently Psichologycal support isn’t negligible for acne treatment.
