Pros:

Easy to apply, it works, and it's cheap!

Cons:

It's a tad bit expensive for me and the smell's not too pleasant, but tolerable. =o)

It says to leave on for 10-15 minute, but I left it on longer. I think it works better if you leave it on longer. =o)

Pros:

easy to use, can see the skin peeling after 10 minutes, it works

Cons:

read the instructions on the package and do NOT use it everyday - use it just 2-3 times per week 'cause it can irritate your skin

I felt the mild tingling sensation after 5 minutes, and after 10 minutes, I saw my skin peeling. I think my red marks will be gone with continued use of this product. (I also use a glycolic acid cream in conjunction with this to speed-up the skin turnover cycle.)

Pros:

Fades it, however it will take plenty of time, patience, and use.

Cons:

It took me 2 years of using this product as directed to see significant results in the reduction of hyperpigmentation caused by acne.

The product does calm existing acne and reduces the size and redness, as well as significantly reducing the appearance of post-acne marks. However, as I have mentioned, it took me two years with consistent application as directed by the product to see these changes (in addition to the regiment that I have been following on a daily basis). Do not expect this product to work overnight, it will take plenty of patience and use for you to see the hyperpigmentation subside. If you have deep acne scars, I'm sorry but lasers are your best option. Plenty of lasers now offer collagen fillers, which fill the "holes" in deep acne scars while eliminating hyperpigmentation. They are usually $280 per treatment and depending on your situation, take 3-4 sessions. I would recommend seeing your dermatologist because there are other ways of reducing hyperpigmentation, such as retinol creams like Atralin. Good luck!!!

Pros:

it works

Cons:

takes a while

basically this product DOES help acne scars fade, it just takes a realllyy long time if you have dark scars. just after a week i could see a really big difference.

Pros:

Lightens acne scars and discolorations. No need to use more than a drop for a few scars.

Cons:

Bad smell, but is worth it for the results.

This product really works. I don't have severe acne, but a few breakouts once and a while. I have super oily skin and is the main reason why I breakout. I had a few noticeable acne scars, and after I've used this fading peel, I noticed them lightening. They were not as red/pinkish and noticeable. After about two weeks, I can hardly tell they are there anymore. I continue using the fading peel in order to competely eliminate the darkened pigment. Great product, really works! (who cares about the smell if it works?)

Pros:

Not that expensive, maybe helped a little with older acne marks.

Cons:

Not that effective. It still left redness, after once or twice a week use. I only left in on for ten minutes like it says to do on the package. I have sensitive skin and it would be red for a while after I rinsed this off. Smell isn't too bad.

Try again.

You have to stick with it for a while to see a little results

I've used it for a while it helped with red areas but not really with the darkening from all those products

Works great but takes forever!
September 1, 2008

Pros:

fades marks and controls acne

Cons:

wish it were stonger

it doesnt sting and it doesnt dry me out. i use it every other night (i use the advanced solutions peel on opposite nights)- its helped reduce my marks and clear my breakouts a lot. i wish it were stronger though! and the smell i don't even notice. try using it every night for a week after you wash your face at night and see if you notice a difference. it never irritated my skin at all. leave it on for about a half hour too (i leave it on until when i move my mouth it peels all over)
