TLDR Resolving acne capsules can reduce acne by improving skin and balancing hormones.

The study investigated the effects of resolving acne capsules on an acne model using rabbit ears, focusing on anti-keratinization and hormone levels. Rabbits were divided into groups receiving different doses of the capsule, a comparison pill, or no treatment. After 2 weeks, the resolving acne capsule and Qingre Anchuang pill were found to suppress acne keratosis, decrease testosterone levels, and increase estradiol levels, with effects varying by dosage. The study concluded that resolving acne capsules could improve abnormal hair follicle cornification and regulate hormone levels, demonstrating anti-acne effects.
