Hi, I'm Brandon and I'm 17 years old and I am going to start off with a little info about my acne over the years. I've suffered from acne for about 6 years. At first it wasn't too horrible in the beginning but the pimples I got would feel like bruises and a head would never come up. At the time I used AcneFree which cleared them up somewhat but a new pimple would come back at the same spot a week after. Soon, it started to get real bad and I had pimples all over my face they would be tender and sometimes pop and leave scars or they would be very hard and then get real tender. I started to use Proactiv over a year ago and it helped slightly but the current state of my face is horrid. I have red marks from past pimples and sometimes another pimple comes up after that one disappears. I ordered the DP regimen a week ago and I started to it use it yesterday. I will be posting my regimen under here. I will edit the post later and add pictures of what my face looks like before I use the regimen.

Morning Regimen -
DP Cleanser
DP Benzoyl Peroxide
Aveeno Positively Radiant Moisturizer SPF 15

Evening Regimen -
DP Cleanser
DP Benzoyl Peroxide
DP Moisturizer



I need to note that I started the regimen on Saturday, October 24th, 2009.

Day 6

Here's just a little update before Saturday when I post new pictures. I see a very small improvement. The side affect have been very minimal such as itchy skin but only sometimes. I haven't had a problem with dry skin though. I started to breakout on my chin the first three days but those are going now. I have one coming up on my cheek which hurts a lot. The pimples that I had on my face seem to be starting to go away.

Day 9


I decided not to post any pictures until I see a much better improvement. I'm just now starting to see flakes and dryness on my skin. I'm going to be using Jojoba oil soon to make the flakes go away but I hear it makes the skin very shiny.

Using jojoba oil shouldn't make your face feel oily or shiny if you use it like this.

Thanks, Zoetrope. I actually didn't have any problems with it but I'm still kind of dry. I have updates really yet. Maybe next week? I've only noticed a slight change so far though.

Day 23

I still haven't seen a big improvement like I want. I currently have 6 active pimples but most of them are very small while I have 3 very big ones but are now coming down. They didn't last long like they usually do.

Day 32

I looked at the pictures from several weeks ago and I see an improvement. I think this stuff is actually working. I still get breakouts but they aren't as bad as what they used to be. I posted three pictures below. Anyone else think there is a difference? I'd like some feedback.

Day 37

On Thursday I stayed up until it was 6am and was asleep all Friday until 6pm. I only got to do the regimen once that day. I'm now seeing the affects of doing it only once that day. I have 5 pimples and two of them are very painful. I now know this regimen is actually helping my skin haha.

I'm not sure what day it is anymore but I'm sure its around 100 plus. I know I am in my 16 Week though. I've seen A LOT of improvement since November. I started AHA a week ago and I love it!

I see tons of improvement in your pictures. It's definitely working brandonn. A few more months and you'll be completely clear mate.

Yeah I agree! From your first picture to your last one. WOW! Huge difference. The redness might take awhile to go away, but it will. Make sure you continue the regimen even after you lose all your acne.
