Dermatology and Therapy, 2015 · n=120 · systematic-review
Systematic review of keratolytics and emollients in psoriasis therapy: salicylic acid is a key keratolytic that removes psoriatic scale and improves penetration of co-applied topical agents; supports salicylic acid as an evidence-based adjunctive (descaling) treatment rather than a standalone therapy.
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2015 · systematic-review
Comprehensive review: salicylic acid (2%) is the only lipophilic BHA, enabling comedolytic and anti-inflammatory activity within the pilosebaceous unit; effective for acne vulgaris, melasma, photodamage, and keratosis pilaris; 20-30% SA peels show efficacy comparable to glycolic acid peels with lower erythema risk in Fitzpatrick IV-VI
Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology, 2011 · n=50 · rct
Single-blind RCT (n=46, 12 weeks) in mild-to-moderate acne comparing salicylic acid 3% plus clindamycin with tretinoin 0.05% plus clindamycin: both significantly reduced inflammatory and non-inflammatory lesion counts; tretinoin acted faster (significant by week 2) but groups were comparable at 12 weeks, and both were well tolerated.
