Comparison of change from baseline of conspicuous number of detected pores on each visit to evaluate the improvement of pores assessed by Colorface device.
Front face image and parallel polarization will be analyzed. A region of interest is defined on the cheek near the nose of each subject at baseline, it has the same size for all subjects and is automatically replaced at other timepoints thanks to a spatial registration algorithm. The conspicuous number is defined as the number of distinct elements in the segmentation. A decrease of the conspicuous number of pores results in a decrease of the number of pores that are detected by the algorithm. There is an improvement of pores if at least one of the following parameters is statistically decreasing and the other ones remain stable and/or not statistically increasing: conspicuous number, conspicuous area, average area, conspicuous density, conspicuous depth and conspicuous volume of detected pores.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The goal of this interventional, confirmatory and post market study is to evaluate the efficacy and clinical performance of Crystal Peel in adults suffering mild facial acne vulgaris. The principal and secondary aims are:
Principal aim: to evaluate the efficacy and clinical performance of Crystal Peel, a salicylic-based peel, for the treatment of acne by lesions counting (front, 2 cheeks, the chin above the jaw line (excluding the nose)) using both visual observation and palpation.
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.
Detailed Description
Total lesions will be defined as the sum of inflammatory lesions (papules and pustules), non-inflammatory lesions (whiteheads and blackheads) and other acne lesions (nodules).
