Dan, I could go on and on about your products and protocol for clear skin but I'll be succinct.

Thank you very much for making quality anti-acne products that work wonderfully well and are so reasonably priced (you could easily charge more but I believe you truly wish to help people---amazing---God bless you.) My skin looks great and I couldn't be happier. I frequently recommend your products.

Now that my skin is clear---when are you going to create some anti-aging products that actually work, lol?! We'll be anxiously waiting...

Hey I had acne when I was in 2nd grade.

My mom and dad were looking for all types of treatments but we couldn’t find any. In 6th grade I still had acne. My mom looked up how to treat acne and she found this page. She told me about it and we started to use it. I didn’t usually use the acne medicine everyday until the summer of 7th grade which is this summer. This summer my acne is gone.

I just wanted to say thanks for the help. So Thanks :)

Dan,

I am writing to tell you that my daughter went from beautiful clear skin to her face being completely covered in little flesh colored bumps to full blown large acne pimples. A Dermatologist about ruined her skin then I stepped in. Your product works wonders on clearing up the skin superficially. However, to really help those with acne you must admit that more is needed. Your product shouldn't be needed.

Skin problems are an indication that something INSIDE is not right. I was able to clear up my daughter's skin with much research. Internal cleansing is the real answer. Your product sped up the process and she continues to use it, but when I incorporated internal cleansing things really changed. Acne is the result of years of bad eating and hormone toxicity. However, these toxins can be expelled from the body by doing internal liver and color cleansing.

As a result of internal cleansing AND your product (your product hastened the good results) my 17 year old daughter usually goes without makeup! I would never have guessed it possible. Also a friend of hers had the same thing happen. All of a sudden her skin just broke out horribly. I told her about your product, but ALSO put her on the same regimen of vitamins and cleansing my daughter went on and her face is now cleansing up beautifully and she can't hardly believe it.

Thanks for your product and the care you have shown so many people.

Dear Dan, My name is Yuval I'm 20y/o from Israel. I've been suffering from acne since I was 16y/o. After reading the information and methods in your site my face has changed and became smooth and clean. I just wanted to say 'Thanks a lot man'. Thanks,

Yuval, Israel


Thank you Dan,

You have inspired me that there is a way out of the black hole that is having acne. For years (since the age of 10) I have suffered and now my life is now worth living again! Thank you, thank you thank you for this beautiful website.

P.S. Your skin looks perfect in your display pic.

I've only been on the Regimen for a couple of days but my skin is already clearing up and in the best shape that it's been in for a long time. After recently being sucked in by the advice of a beautician and spending hundreds of dollars on expensive skin care products that only irritated my skin, I'm so glad I found the Regimen. The lesson I've learnt is that big brands will disappoint, and that simplicity appears to be the key when it comes to success with acne. I've been using benzoyl peroxide for some time, but realised through your advice that I haven't been using enough of it. Now that I've increased the amount I use, the condition of my acne has drastically improved. I'm so happy!

Thank you so much for creating this website and sharing your extensive knowledge on acne with me and so many others.

Dear acne.org

I just wanted to say thanks so much for this website. I started using the regimen 2 months ago. The results have been great, smooth skin and hardly any breakouts. My skin is by no means perfect i.e. it has plenty of red marks but I have had acne for 16 years so i cannot expect flawless skin. I have ordered the AHA and hope that may help reduce the red marks with time.

Anyway, back to the point. I can't tell you what a joy it is to wake up and not have to look fearfully in the mirror to see how many spots I have each day. When I'm out and I see people with acne I really want to run over and tell them to check this site... but I remember how sensitive I felt when people thought it was ok to bring up my acne so I never do!

The BP has been quite harsh but now there is no dryness or flakiness. I have reduced the amount of BP i use - a little in the day and a bit more at night - and it still works fine.

I also took the advice on the website and reduced my sugar intake and stopped touching my face (I used to touch my face all the time!). I've also been drinking lots of green tea which I read about on some other site. These these things make a huge difference. However, I know the regimen (specifically the BP) works because even when i have a massive sugar overload now and then I still only get the occasional spot.

I have read lots of complaints on this website about the moisturizer. It certainly does not absorb readily but I love it because it's so soothing and the jojoba oil it contains seems to have reduced the oiliness of my skin a bit. I find it absorbs easily if I spread small amounts at a time over my skin rather than dispense a pumpful and try and apply it all at once.

I will keep up the regimen and hope for continued break out free skin.

Thanks so much!

I've been using dan kerns products for 2 years now. before this i tried everything (high and drug store, proactiv) and as long as i'm consistent with using the products twice a day, not skipping a step- my face looks perfect (it terms of acne). i didn't have acne so much as a kid but got it in my early 20's.
i'm moving to australia and making sure to pack with the cleanser and treatment cause i can't go through trying new products again-

thanks dan your the best!

I used to have fairly mild but embarrassing and long-lasting acne. I tried a few things, half-heartedly, but it wasn't until my mother decided to research the subject that I found out about your regimen. I'm so glad I did! Since I started, my pimples have become rarer and gone away quickly when they do surface. Now when I have spots, I don't mind, because I know they'll be gone in a few days. I feel so much more self-confident now -- I had no idea how negatively my self-esteem was impacted by my acne before. Thank you for providing this wonderful resource.

Wow!!!!! I can't believe it! After 5 years of Inflammatory Adult Acne ruining my life I now look in the mirror and I smile!
My skin looks AMAZING! There is still a way to go but it looks much much better than it did 2 weeks ago. I've even had 2 comments on how good it looks, that was without make up on.
The first week on the Regimen I wanted to stop. My skin was dry and cracked and looked AWFUL. I switched moisturiser and stopped using BP for a couple of days and my skin recovered in no time.

I've had no new spots since starting the Regimen. I had a couple of stubborn big nodules thats Tetralysal and Zineryt hadn't got rid of, these are now almost gone!
My whole face is smoother, the scarring I had is disappearing and for the first time in 5years I'm positive that acne CAN be beaten.

I ALSO STOPPED TAKING MY TETRALYSAL AFTER A COUPLE DAYS ON THE REGIMEN as I wanted to quit long term antibiotics and I have had NO SKIN FLARE UP AT ALL.
My Doctor was about to prescribe Accutane as I had nodules that had been there months, I don't need this drug now!!!!!

As I am in the UK I have sourced my own products.
I have used:
Clean and Clear Refreshing Deep Cleansing Wash
PanOxyl Benzoyl Peroxide 5% Cream
Oil of Olay Beauty Fluid Moisturiser

Thank you so much for sharing your success story and helping so many people. It's not just acne you are saving people from, you are saving them from those days when they can't bear to leave the house, the days when they look around at all their fresh faced friends and feel like everybodys looking at them.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
