Remanded (sent back)
The Board remands the claim for service connection for acne to obtain an addendum opinion addressing whether the Veteran's condition was aggravated by his service.
The deciding factor: The January 2025 opinion is not adequate to determine if the change in diagnosis constitutes aggravation, so an addendum opinion is needed.
