Lysine-Dendrimer, a New Non-Aggressive Solution to Rebalance the Microbiota of Acne-Prone Skin
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
The article is very interesting and well written
The material and methods section explains the methods used very well, the figures are of a good standard. I would have just minor revisions for the authors
1) Add a paragraph where they talk about the limitations of the study in order to allow for more discussion in the future
2) In the introduction we need to discuss the role of the microbiota in general, its importance is of great importance these years not only in acne but also in other related diseases such as HS. I leave a reference that the authors can use
- DOI: 10.1111/ced.15291
3) The discussion and conclusion section should be divided.
4) Minimal language revision is required
Minor editing of English language required
