Right, so it's only been about 3 weeks, but to be fair I could easily have written this a week and a half ago. This stuff is actually a miracle! It's got some magical joo-joo or something that just makes it so fab!!!
I've had bad skin since I was 12 (18 now) and have never really found a 'cure' for acne. Stuff's made it better, stuff's made it worse, but I've never really found anything that made my skin literally perfect. Even when I had phases with no acne, my skin still had a bumpy feeling. In close up pictures, my pores looked clogged and nasty. Just not a nice skin texture.
The Regimen has 1. Gotten rid of ALL my spots and 2. Completely smoothed out my skin. It's stupidly good. My skin now looks crystal clear, and I can easily go out without make-up without wanting to tear my face off.
The only down-sider is maybe that my skin was very awkward after a week of using it, but I know that it was only getting used to the Benozyl Peroxide. It actually feels nice going on now.
So...my verdict? Try this stuff, now. I dawdled around this website for two years before trying it, and I wish I'd tried sooner!

I've tried multiple regimins including many prescription items and diets for hormone related acne. With no real success, I began searching for solutions on the internet. Before ordering Dan Kern's product, I decided to buy a couple of tubes of the Neutrogena and try it as Dan suggests and I began seeing results. Then I decided to order Dan's treatment. Dan's treatment is a LOT better than the Neutrogena (or any other OTC benzoyl peroxide) because it is a gel and it does not clump like all other benzoyl peroxide products tend to do. I discovered after a month or so of use, I got REALLY great results when I used the benzoyl peroxide as Dan suggests and also used Retin-A a few times per week. If you haven't had much luck w/ RX products or you're trying to find a solution without going to a dermatologist, I strongly recommend giving Dan's regimin a shot.

Dan,
In 1996, my acne (the deep kind that needed shots to treat) was not cured by tetracyclene or retin-a. In 1998, they put me on Accutane. I remember being all dried up everywhere and wanting being VERY depressed. Supposedly they are tying to ban it because it makes people suicidal. Anyway, after I got off it, I was promised to never have bad acne again.
But something wasnt right. I now require chapstick everyday, and probably will for the rest of my life. My hands are always dry, and I feel that the drug did more harm than good by supposedly shrinking my oil glands (or whatever it claimed to do!).
In 2000, my acne seemed to sort of return. I started getting small ones, the type you can just scrape off your face with a light scratch. It seemed to spread to certain areas, such as my scalp, my neck, and sometimes would migrate to my back.
In 2001, it was getting a bit worse (maybe 2 pimples a day) and I tried some serum that basically smelled like alcohol and it dried out my face and was about $40 per ounce. It didnt work.
In 2003, my acne was almost just as bad as it was at the age of 15 in 1996. Not knowing what to do, I think I just did some google searching and came accross your site.
It is now 2005, and I have been on your program for 2 years. My face cleared up within one week. Even the deep cystic pimples went away and new ones never came back. Sometimes I would get little ones, but they would heal in one day (almost vanish)!!
Well, I never read most of the website, I just heard benzoyl peroxide = clear skin. So I started smearing it all over my face, and poof, acne is gone. I ran out of 10% oxy 3 weeks ago and decided maybe I outgrew acne, since my brother stopped having acne and he is a year and half older than me. I mean, I'll be turning 25 in a few months, so that means I'm in the clear, right?
Well I was wrong. My face EXPLODED. WORST ACNE EVER! I bought some Pan Oxy or some off-brand, and I swear it made it worse. I've been on oxy 10% for about 5 days and all of a sudden all my acne is gone again. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!
So, this bud that I'm drinking is for you, Mr. Acne Vanisher Man, for helping me out with a simple and cost-effective solution when no doctor could help. You are a genious!
I also remember back then you were trying to get a 4 ounce tube of 2.5%. Upon returning to your site 2 years later, I see that you've done it. And you offer it cheaper than $5.00 per ounce that I pay for my oxy 10% that dries my face out. Good job on that, and I hope you make TONS of money. Even though your main goal is to help people, you deserve to be RICH after making a product like that. I placed my order and got it really quick. It applies much better than the Oxy. Nothing is worse than someone saying to me Hey, just so you know, you've got white stuff all over your face, where you eating a powder doughnut or something? I always say, no, its probably toothpaste. How embarrasing! Your product is invisible. And it doesn't stink. Awesome!
So I thank you. A clear face has given me a better chance for success at life.
Greatfully yours and God bless,
Brian
I don't know who are you, but I want to buy you about 10 beers for changing my life.

Hi Dan,
I had to write and say THANK YOU for everything you do on here. I never had a problem with acne until I was in my 20's. I felt ashamed and embarrassed because I was an adult and shouldn't be breaking out like a teenager. I tried everything to make the acne stop and nothing worked. I would just end up frustrated on the verge of tears with a face full of acne and an empty valet.
My best friend came upon your website (Acne.org) and tried your regimen. Two days later she sent me an email saying I had to try it because she was already seeing positive results with her skin. I was skeptical at first because I felt as though I had tried everything already and the only thing I should be concentrating on was accepting a life with acne.
Thankfully, I decided to give it a shot. First I tried the store products you recommended. Within 3 days my face looked fantastic! It looked so good that I decided to try your product line and it was even better! Here it is 2 months later and my skin has never looked so good. I've even received compliments on how nice my skin is! That hasn't happened in I don't know how long.
Thank you so much for giving me my confidence back and for taking the time to make this website. I've told everyone I know about it. You truly are a life saver and I can't thank you enough!

i would just love to say thank you so much for all you do! You really deserve it. I started getting acne my freshman year of college and have tried everything( ProActiv, Exposed, supplement pills, every face cream at the drug store) the past 6 years. I have very sensitive skin and was to the point that i had 2 options: slight acne with a rash from the chemicals, or moderate acne and no rash. wasn't a big fan of the rash so needless to say i have had the moderate acne for about 2 years and just grew to having it as part of my life. until the patients at work, im a nurse, started commenting about it and i started trying more products again without success. i stumbled on your website and was skeptical but thought why not atleast the products were fragrance and dye free and i wasn't going to get a rash. i've been using the produts for 3 days and my acne of 6 years is almost clear and my face feels great. my co-workers and patients have noticed the remarkable change. i just sing your praises. please keep up the great work your a life saver.

Dan, I cannot thank you enough for sharing your success as well as your routine with us. I ran across your website and found it interesting enough, but I kept looking for the buy my product to achieve great skin catch. Surprisingly, there was none! That is what hooked me - I thought if he is telling his story with nothing to gain, it must be worth trying! So, the very next day I went out and bought Neutrogena On The Spot 2.5% bp cream. I followed your routine almost to a tee and guess what? It has only been 1 ½ weeks and I have had dramatic clearing of my acne! Even my red spots from old acne are fading! I will admit that my skin is dryer, flakier and somewhat itchy but I am more than willing to put up with that for a clear face!! I have battled moderate acne for over 15 years and like most other acne sufferers out there, tried loads of products until I really thought there was nothing out there left to try. I thought that my last hope was expensive laser treatments and was well on my way to talking myself into undergoing them, until I found this website! Again, I cannot thank you enough and I can't wait to see my skin in three months! I am so excited. And for those out there, considering it - PLEASE try it! It DOES work if you follow the routine.
THANKS AGAIN DAN!

Thank You!
I've used proactive (stopped working over time), Accutane (quit after it started affecting my lower back), Salicylic acid (harsh and irritated my skin), and many more over the counter products that gave short term satisfaction.
I've have acne for 15 years and was very depressed throughout when the acne would flare up. I'm African American & have highly oily skin and would literally get a pimple everyday I just about had every type of pimple you could imagine. When I went to see the dermatologist a few years ago she said that a topical treatment wouldn't work for the cystic and commedome acne that I had so I was prescribed Accutane for a few months and after it started to stiffen my lower back I decided to stop and deal with my acne instead. Jan to May 2012 was the most depressing time for me I would cry at night because my face was broken out all over with huge cystic acne, they were red and just throbbing with pain plus I scarred easy so I'd try to hide it with makeup. In June I came across an acne.org users page on youtube and I saw the change, though skeptical because of what the dermatologist had told me I decided I don't have anything to loose so why not try this from June-September 2012 my face has cleared up 90+ percent.
Its truly a blessing. I'm happy when I look at myself in the mirror and don't feel like a slave to makeup anymore.
The products I purchased was the original kit plus the AHA treatment that helped the most with allowing my skin to shed the dead pore clogging skin.
Thank you Dan for creating this life changing and self esteem building product I'm never quitting this product!

Thank you so much Acne.org.
I have battled acne on and off for the past 15 years. I have African American, Mexican American skin so it's not easy to treat. I started having acne at 15 years old and I tried everything Proactiv, Retin-a, Murad you name it. Living in southern California, I had the opportunity to go to a top dermatologist featured in Extreme Makeover TV show. I went to several doctors and after underwhelming results I almost gave up. Then I started researching online and I gave your regime a shot. I used your regime with acne script and my skin cleared up. After finishing acne script, I continued with the regime products only and I have been testing to see if the results last. I'm happy to say it's been a year and my skin is finally not a concern. Dan Kern has finally let clear skin be an option for everyone and the price isn't outrageous.
Thank you so much! Just try it and you will never go back.

Hello Dan, I am writing to thank you for your all that you have done for me. I am 24 and have been dealing with acne since I was 13. In the month before I found your site I went to a doctor and got accutane again. I was contemplating taking it even though I hated the effects of the stuff. You have taken it - you know. I stumbled rather accidentally upon your site and read it. I must admit I was a bit sceptical at first as I have tried every treatment known to man, to no avail. You made a convincing case though and I went ahead and gave it a try. I am amazed, you are brilliant, really. This works wonders. I went from a medium acne problem - which at 24 is a nightmare to almost nothing. I have been following the regimen for 2 months now and my breakouts are over with. My skin is the clearest it has been since I was on accutane but without the horrible dryness. I really can't praise you and your method enough. Thank you for taking the time to share it with the world, I am sure that having had acne like mine that you can understand the increadable differance that you have made in my life. Any way I really want to say thanks and that you are making a differance in peoples lives, you really have in mine. Sincerly,
Martin, Chicago, Illinois
