My acne wasn't that bad. I think it was just regular teenage pimples. I know a few girls who used this treatment and it worked AMAZINGLY, and their acne was way worse than mine, so I figured it would work on my "mild" acne HAHA I used it and saw results within about three weeks... then soon after that my face broke out worse than it ever had before. and it has never gotten better. I have spent my time since then trying to repair the damage it has done to my face and the severe acne it has caused. I even get acne under my chin and on my cheeks which never happened. I know it works for some people but if you don't have serious acne... I wouldn't reccommend it

Cons:

The "guaranteed refund" is a farce.

I bought the product at a kiosk at a mall. When I looked at the package, it turned out that it had benzoyl peroxide, which I cannot use. I called Proactiv for a refund. They told me I had to call the kiosk owner. I had to go back to the mall to get the number off the kiosk. When I called that number, they told me it was past 60 days, so no refund, even though the product was unopened. I also called Proactiv back, and they also refused to give a refund.

Pros:

Works well for the first few weeks, skin feels smoother and softer.

Cons:

Does not work after that, stop using it and skin is more oily, more painful pimples, flaky and rough.

Don't go for this treatment.

Pros:

-I love how it makes my face feel after I use it,
-Smells great
-Clears up acne during first couple of uses

Cons:

-After awhile stops really working.
-I still breakout, and get under the skin pimples.
-Made my skin oily, and over priced.

Doesn't work well enough for the money spent, the only reason i'm still using it, is because i haven't found any other acne cleansers and lotions that I love.

Pros:

Makes face feel really good. Very good for mild acne.

Cons:

Stopped working after awhile.

Worked really well when I was on birth control bills and acne was not severe. Once off birth control, my acne was awful and Proactiv was almost useless. I'd recommend it if you have mild acne. If you have more severe acne, it isn't worth the money.
