Hello! I am a 31 year-old male still battling mild to moderate acne. I was last using Ziana gel, and it helped things out and my skin was almost perfect. Then I stopped using the Ziana for a couple of years because I thought I finally grew out of needing acne meds, and of late my skin has been breaking out pretty badly on my forehead and cheeks. I was about to give in and go back to my dermatologist to get another prescription, but I happened to find this website before making the appointment and I am giving the regimen a go! I am tired of giving up a co-pay for another prescription, and spending big $$$ on the Ziana because my insurance does not cover it.

So I started last week using the Basis bar soap, Neutrogena Spot Treatment, and Cetaphil Lotion. I did this for three days straight only in the evenings. In the mornings I just did the soap and lotion. My face started getting pretty red, even though I was using a low dosage of BP. I took 3 days off until my face lightened back up, and now I am only using the BP every other night. I recently got Dan's BP and am using that. It really does seem to be less irritating/drying than the Neutrogena, unless my face is just getting used to the BP. Tonight is the first night my face is not really red after using the BP. I have had a few minor breakouts since starting, but nothing too bad at all. My skin is looking much better already in most spots. I look forward to continuing on the regimen...
