I hate to repeat what everyone has told you but,it works! My daughter is 12 and had her first dermatology visit at age 8, she was on differin,BP 5% and erythromyacin for over ayear with little or no result.I was about to go for the hard stuff when I found your site. In 4 days it is staggering the improvement,almost clear! No embarrassment and all smiles,We do not believe that it works but it does.Will update,more thanks than I can ever tell you

I am a real person. I wanted to start it off there. I have read success stories using other products and systems (Retin-A, Proactiv, etc.) and none of those worked for me.

Following the Regimen exactly how Dan prescribes it -- getting a Sensor Excel razor, waiting between steps and everything, has worked wonders for me.

I have had a good solid month on the Regimen and my face has been completely clear for about 2-3 weeks, minus perhaps a couple random pimples. Glorious and heaven on earth. I was so angry about my face. I am one of the people who acne GOT the best of: I became isolated and angry at everyone. Before I even met someone I'd start them off on the lowest peg because I would imagine how they would immediately reject me upon seeing my acne. I used to have moderate-->severe acne in my 13-17 year old phase. I am now 22, and would say I have had mild--->moderate acne for the past three years.

I have tried everything---just like Dan. Accutane is the only other treatment that comes close to this, but with horrible side effects (bloody lips all the time anyone??). It seems so obvious: just use a lot of benzoyl peroxide, how come I didn't read this earlier!?!?!? I mean, the benzoyl peroxide methods always worked a little for me, but not nearly well enough, by putting a good finger's length on my face twice daily, my acne has been obliterated. I say good riddance to that nasty bacteria living in my pores!

Thank you Dan.

Hi Dan,

I stumbled across this website in the summer of this year (2008) when I was looking for acne cures. Acne randomly just came on for what seemed to be no reason (I'm 22 and have always ahd a spot or two but never anything that majorly bothered me) anyway after trying what seemed to be every other topical treatment including stuff prescribed from the GP, I decided to give this a go as a last resort before oral medication. My skin was looking a lot clearer in the first week and was looking great after the redness and soreness subsided. I managed to get what seemed to be constant flaking sorted by only applying BP at night. 8 weeks on and I don't think of acne any more! This is such a great treatment and I, like others are so glad that you have shared it with everyone! You have improved my life!

thanks! :)

Dan, Well, your stuff has worked wonders. I was on antibiotics as a kid to keep my face clear. I got off them when I got out of my teens and my face stayed clear for a couple years. After getting off birth control and going all natural I started breaking out again. It was worse than the first time. I would get deep cysts on my chin and even though I have always been complicated on my looks, I started feeling ugly and self conscious. I tried several different b-control pills to try and get my face clear. Nothing worked! I went back on antibiotics and had a hard time dealing with the nausea AND I still had break outs. After reading your web site-almost two months ago I went off the antibiotics and started using your regimen. I had break outs for the first couple weeks...and then all of a sudden my face was clear. It was clear for a week, then two weeks, then three weeks. I absolutely can1t believe it. I1m actually going out tonight with NO makeup on. Thank you. You have made me realize that using BP consistently works. I feel pretty again. Thanks

Hi Dan,

I'm 55, have had non-inflammatory acne since age 12 (!!), and have run the gamut of products from old-time sulfur creams to Accutane. I've used various brands of BP, but they either didn't help or overly dried my skin. Nothing has ever fully cleared my skin from blackheads and small pimples, not even menopause. (My dermatologist told me my skin would improve after menopause. She lied).

I decided to try your BP Gel just for the hell of it, but with no expectations. Long story short: It's helped, a lot. I then decided to add your cleanser and moisturizer. I gotta say, Dan, I'm blown away. The cleanser doesn't dry my face, and the moisturizer is the only one I've tried that doesn't leave my face feeling greasy or cause new breakouts. I've also added Green Cream, which I use during the day.

The result: MUCH clearing, much less reappearance of blackheads. I'm relieved. I'm thrilled.

I'm also thrilled your products and website don't use fear-based advertising to promote their benefits, and I really like the simplicity of your packaging. No bullshit. And, of course, your prices are unbeatable, way better than other skin-care sites that sell equivalent products, like Paula's Choice.

I'm a Dan's Regimen convert and devotee. I'll never buy pricey skin stuff again. I think your work is downright subversive, giving the finger to cosmetic corporations, manipulative advertisers, pharmecutical companies, even physicians who sell their own (expensive) brands.

Bravo!!

I just wanted to say thanks, Dan for giving us such an effective and easy treatment for acne. I've been using your regimen for a few years now, and I'm so happy with the results I get.

It's become such a regular part of my day that I usually don't think much about it, but today I stopped and thought I should really let you know how much I appreciate your help.

So that's all I wanted to say! Thanks a ton!

Dear Dan, I want to thank you for putting your acne regimin on the Internet. I'm a senior in high school and have had mild to moderate acne since my freshman year. I tried everything. Proactiv, doctor's prescriptions, tons of on the spot treatments and face washes from the stores. You name it, I tried it. Nothing made it budge and some made it worse. I was almost ready to give in and just let it go away with age until I found your website. I started following the regimen and although it took about 3 months to really see results, I stuck with it and it was worth the wait. Its been about 10 months now. I'm not exactly clear and I still have some scars that I'm working on. But the difference is night and day. I don't have perfect complexion but its nothing to be embarassed about like it once was. I have new found confidence, I've gotten compliments from a few people and I feel much better about myself in social situations. Thanks a lot. Your regimen has really changed my life.

Your products are so great!

After 6 weeks on the regimen, my pimples have disappeared! I used to break out every month and now that is a distant memory. I went from using the Treatment twice a day to only at night because my skin has improved so much. I use the AHA in the morning in place of the Treatment.

I hope you are working on a dark mark/scar eraser for those zits we used to have that are still visible. My dream!!

I love these products, I just ordered a kit for my niece and I hope she has as much success as I have had.

Thanks, your website is great too.

Hey Dan,

I just wanna say thankyou for helping me battle my acne. I have never really had ance before and so it has never bothered me. But when i started using many harsh facial products that overly irritated my skin and made it oily, i started getting little red bumps all over my face. At that time, it really didnt bother me much because i thought it will clear soon. But it didnt. After weeks of being bugged by my mum, who constantly warned that my skin looked really bad, i was stupid enough to go out and buy 'clearasil acne face SCRUB' (which promises clear skin in 3 days). When i used it for a few weeks, something became obvious; a mass breakout of papules, blackheads, whiteheads and large pus filled pustules! (clearly the scrub irritated my skin). This was perhaps one of the most depressing experiences i have ever dealt. My social life plummeted as i always made up excuses not to go out with friends and show my face to people. I always hid in my room and closed all the curtaiins and lights off...i tried to hide it. I would also not look in the mirror for i feared seeing myself with the skin condition. Yes, i was very depressed.

Luckily, after searching the net for remedies, i came across your regime. I read all the success stories and so i was convinced that it might work for me; and it did. It took me around 2-3 weeks to see good results and around 6-7 weeks to get clear.

Thankyou so much!!!!!!!!!! You are truly a generous man for sharing your regime to all those out there with acne. Thankyou x 1000

yours sincerely,

Simon, Australia
