Steroid acne is a common unwanted effect in patients undergoing corticosteroid therapy. Eight women in a series of 1276 adult patients had acne after orthognathic surgery in which short-course parenteral corticosteroid therapy was used to reduce postoperative swelling. Steroid-induced acneiform eruption is different from acne vulgaris in that the former usually resolves on its own, without scar formation, after withdrawal of the drug.
类固醇性痤疮是接受皮质类固醇治疗的患者中常见的不良效应。在1276例成年患者系列中，有8名女性在正颌手术后出现痤疮，该手术中使用了短疗程胃肠外皮质类固醇治疗以减轻术后肿胀。类固醇诱导的痤疮样皮疹与寻常痤疮不同，前者在停药后通常可自行消退，不会形成瘢痕。
