The invention relates to application of a photosensitizer for treating acne. The photosensitizer is amino acid zinc phthalocyanine or a derivative thereof or organic or inorganic salt thereof which is used as the photosensitizer in photodynamic therapy for treating acne. The photosensitizer is of targeting and targeting aggressivity to target germs. Photons with special energy excite target molecules of the photosensitizer, the target molecules of the photosensitizer can transfer energy to oxygen molecules, and high energy oxygen molecules kill adjacent target germs: propionibacterium acnes, escherichia coli and staphylococcus aureus to treat acne. The photosensitizer provided by the invention used to treat acne is good in effect, free from antibiotics and hormone and tolerance, less in side effect, safe and nontoxic and economic and practical; can efficiently and quickly kill propionibacterium acnes, escherichia coli and staphylococcus aureus which induce acne to treat acne and restore skins without damaging normal cells; and is small in use level of effect medicines, and strong in effect of killing acne pathogenic bacteria.

An improved method, formulation and kit for the treatment of acne vulgaris are disclosed. The formulation is effective in inhibiting or killing the Proprionibacterium microorganism without utilizing antibiotics A preferred formulation alleviates the four pathogenic factors involved in the development of acne a) the putative pathogen of acne, Proprionibacterium acnes, b) abnormal desquamation of sebaceous-follicle epithelium (comedogenesis), c) the androgen-induced excessive sebum production, and d) the follicular reactivity (inflammation). The formulations are preferably applied as a cream, lotion or an emulsion.

The invention discloses an acne-removing composition and a preparation method thereof. The acne-removing composition can be absorbed by skins faster compared with an emulsion preparation so as to take the function to the maximum extent. The function of comprehensively removing acnes is achieved by means of improving the moisturizing effect of the skins, adjusting the grease balance of the skins, inhibiting hypersecretion of sebum and inhibiting reproduction of propionibacterium acnes as well as by virtue of interaction of anti-inflammatory action and acne removal. The pH of the acne-removing composition is 4.5-5.5 (10% aqueous solution) which is faintly acid, and the acne-removing composition is mild in property and does not irritate the skins, and meanwhile, the effects of macromolecular salicylic acid and a composite plant acne-removing preparation are more obvious.
