Pros i love love love it! i had terrible scars on my forehead, and i went to the derm. she prescribed this and after one day, my scars started to fade. i can't wait to get back on it. i am using BP gel now, until i get insurance again, so i get this back
Cons you have to get a presciption for it. i can't wait to get my health insurance back.
Bottom line it works. it helps with scars and it does not over dry . it controls pimples and it is amazing under make-up. try it. it helps with scars.

Pros Worked wells at clearing up the face
Cons hasn't completely gotten rid all of the acne
Bottom line It improved my very bad acne to just moderate, but it seems to just be maintaining that level and not getting any better.

Pros Kills the Acne P. Bacterial, Did a good job of clearing my Mild to Moderate Acne. (Combination of Whiteheads, Blackheads, Pustles and Cysts.) Great to use under makeup! I've use makeup daily keeps the acne under control. inexpensive
Cons Comes in a small bottle. May sting a little bit because of the alcohol base for some people. I was using astringent before so it didn't really bother me.
Bottom line In my teens and 20's I used Clindaycin for years and had practically perfect skin. Stop using it because skin changed in my 30's got dryer until recently starting to have bad hormonal flare-ups resulting in many painful cysts practically weekly got back on Clindamycin and everything's back under control acne.

Daytime: Use Clindamycin under my makeup.

Night-time: Apply a base of Clindamycin on the skin and then apply a coat of Neutrogena Spot of Treatment 2.5%. Works great!
Price paid $11.00

Pros Cleared up a few blemishes and scars.
Face looked clearer than before.
Didn't have any side effects. (I guess I have tough skin 'cause I used alchohol on my face before.)
Cons Wasn't very effective.
No other significant changes.
Bottom line Clindamycin Topical Gel 1% made my skin a little bit more clear. It used to look polkadots of brown and gold but nothing else after a few days of using it. It didn't really prevent any future breakouts such as whiteheads or blackheads.
I have moderate acne but many scars. ):
Scars are still there but a few of my blemishes disappeared.

Pros Clears up pimples around nose quite quickly! No nausea, heart burn caused, and doesn't restrict me from eating. The dabber is convenient as well.
Cons Smells quite terrible and strong, burns my nose for about 30 seconds.
Bottom line I went to the doctor because of the insane stomach problems minocycline had/has been giving me since March and she prescribed this instead, which I am hoping will keep the acne (which I haven't had since March) away.
Price paid $10.00
