Isotretinoin results in a significant reduction in sebum production, influences comedogenesis, lowers surface and ductal P. acnes and has anti-inflammatory properties. Isotretinoin induces apoptosis in sebocytes, leading to a decrease in sebum production. Isotretinoin also reduces the formation of comedones by reducing hyperkeratinization.
