Reviewer 1 Report

Comments and Suggestions for Authors

The review on the potential therapy for acne through topical cannabinoids is certainly a valuable contribution to an interesting topic. However, the perceptible shortage of data from clinical trials not only represents a limitation tied to current knowledge but also diminishes its practical utility for the reader. Despite this challenge, the paper provides a comprehensive analysis of current research, presenting innovative perspectives. Furthermore, I would kindly like to point out that that there is an opportunity for optimization in terms of conciseness to improve reader accessibility.

Reviewer 2 Report

Comments and Suggestions for Authors

The manuscript has been well prepared, however there are some suggestion for improvement:

1. Lack of information on potential of Cannabis, eg. which countries are among the most producers? what number is the production?

2. In regards to the phytocannabinoids, are they originally only from Cannabis? please add about this

3. For the treatment using cannabinoids, in which form of the cannabinoids? are there any modifications to enhance the activity?

4. Part 3.3.1. Preclinical findings --> It is better if classified according to the mechanism of action of the cannabinoid, eg. 3.3.1.1. Lipostatic, etc
