Pros:

It's quick and relatively cheap when you think of the alternative.

Cons:

The price

I am in my twenties and never had acne problems until I went to college. I have scaring on my chin and cheeks. This has helped even out the coloring of the scars and smooth out my skin. At first I had a few bumps caused by irritating my skin. If you have sensitive skin put it on the lower setting and only do it once a week. Make sure you get all the lotion and crystals off your skin and everything will be ok.

Pros:

Removed dry skin. Made acne scars appear lighter. Helped get rid of stubborn acne.

Cons:

A bit expensive, but really its worth it, and other acne products can add up to just as much.

Follow their directions. Use a sensitve skin cleanser. Moisturize after. Be prepared to buy new sponges and cream. NEVER USE IT ON PUSCULAR ACNE.

From reading some of the reviews below, I think its safe to assume that for most people with pimples, this product just makes acne worse. I cleared my skin using AcneFree 3-step system, but have some mild scars (light-light brown marks on the sides of my face), this did improve my complexion and lighten some of the scars, they aren't completely gone, but its better than before. So I think if you have relatively clear skin with just scars it will help.

Smooths Skin

Cons:

Breaks out!

If you have oily skin, you might end up with clogged pores and breakout with little tiny white heads!

Pros:

made scars smoother, smaller, and less red

Cons:

didn't completely get rid of scars; not the result i was hoping for before i began using it

even though it didn't help 100%, i was extremely pleased with the results. it made a huge difference, and my scars are so much easier to cover up with makeup now. everyone with acne scars should give this a shot.

Pros:

This product really helped smooth the skin and keep it feeling calm and undry.

Cons:

It doesn't help with my acne whatsoever!

I would recommend this product to those with dry, oily, or combination skin, but i would not recommend it to acne sufferers. I would suggest internal diets, that helped clear my skin.

Pros:

My face became acne free, my pores are smaller, and my face has a even tone, and I am a smoker. This is one of the best gifts I have received.

Cons:

Having to remember to do it three times a week is my challenge.

I think this is for everyone young and old. I am a firm believer that if you want younger looking skin when you are 60 than you need to take care of it when you are 20 while the damage is happening.

Great manual exfoliator
I used this for years and loved it. As of now I've realized that chemical exfoliators like AHA work better, but for general use and getting rid of the grimey sensation that can build up from dead skin, this is great. Just be sure to keep it away from active zits. It'll cause them to rupture and you'll have a bigger problem on your hands.

Pros:

cheap alternative to professional microderms, a step above a basic exfoliator, evens skin tone a little bit, smooths out the skin. soft skin! It's also fun to use and feels good.

Cons:

didn't notice any difference on acne, more just a difference on skin tone and its smoothness.

it's not bad, but it's not a miracle worker. I've had professional microderms as well, and i think they are extremely overrated and overpriced. this product gives you the same results...which, like i said, aren't acne cures. If you're looking for an acne treatment, this isn't it. It's more of a relaxing, soothing, fun product to use that makes your skin silky. Makes you feel like you brought the spa home with you.
