Objective: To describe innovative approaches to treating acne conglobata, with a focus on advanced therapies. Methodology: A qualitative literature review conducted across various bibliographic databases, including PubMed, SciELO, Google Scholar, and the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses. Results: The literature analysis revealed that advanced therapies such as laser, intense pulsed light, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, and corticosteroid injections have shown significant efficacy in managing acne conglobata. Interventions were identified that can effectively treat acne conglobata, ensuring greater efficacy and reduced adverse effects. These treatments aim to relieve symptoms, promote skin regeneration, and reduce the risk of scarring. Conclusion: Innovative methods have the potential to optimize the treatment of acne conglobata, offering effective solutions to the therapeutic challenges faced. These approaches demonstrated a reduction in inflammatory lesions, improved skin texture, and fewer adverse effects compared to conventional treatments. They also stand out as promising alternatives in cases resistant to antibiotics and hormonal therapies, reinforcing the importance of a personalized approach in dermatological care.
