Secondary aims: pores and texture analysis, visual effect (Standardized anonymized photographs, investigator global assessment, patient global assessment, local and overall tolerance of the Crystal Peel, subject's self-evaluation and potential adverse events collection.

The primary endpoint of the study will be an objective counting of the acne lesions performed on every visit.
