Excellent for keratosis pilaris

I’ve had keratosis pilaris on the back of my arms for decades. I did not know what it was for a long time and was only recently diagnosed by a dermatologist, who suggested that I try AHA on the affected areas. Within two weeks of applying acne.org’s AHA, I saw the number of bumps decrease, even though I was only applying it once every 2-3 days. It has been several months now and my arms are almost completely smooth, leaving behind just the hyperpigmentation that remains from years of picking at the skin. I hope that the AHA will even out the skin tone with time!

Best Treatment For Back

I've been using the AHA+  for 8 yrs  and it has kept my back acne free.  I'd like to note that my back acne was at the very least moderate.  I used to get painful dime sized pimples on my back.

Amazing, when used with caution

I have been using this product alongside the acne.org regime and I am SO BEYOND THANKFUL for the results so far! No only had my severe cystic disappeared, but my awful hyperpigmentation is slowly starting to fade! 

So I have been using the regime for two solid months, and the AHA for a solid month from today! My face went from a textured, red, lumpy mess to being soft to the touch with only a few under the skin non-infected cystic bumps that should eventually fade away by themselves. These bumps still have some hyperpigmentation to them, but so far they are now pink rather than an angry red! 

I will warn. START SLOW. Once tontwoce a week for the first week or so. Don’t do what I did. I used it three times in the first week, saw my face redden, and thought that this was normal. Then I applied it everyday along with the moisterizer. I went BEET RED for about a week. I pushed through and now my face is back to normal skin tone. However, just last night, I used a little too much AHA and not enough moisterizer to help dilute it and After I applied the BP (just two thirds of a fingers length) my face again went beet red! It went away after a couple of hours, but I was freaking out! 

Slower is better with AHA. And I can’t wait to see how far I can go with this product!

Love it!!

I use AHA+ mainly as a spot treatment and I swear by it! When I see or feel a zit forming, I apply AHA+ at that area after applying moisturizer, by the end of the day or morning after, it’s either barely there or gone! I also use it occasionally in place of moisturizer to help even out my skin tone. AHA+ is definitely worth it!

Have some faith

I use this product to fade marks. I have tried this product multiple times and always stopped using it because it seemed to make me breakout but last time I stuck with it and I can honestly this is magic. A few months ago I'd be devastated if I broke out because I knew it would take a year for it to disappeart. Now that I am using this product the marks will fade 10x faster. I LOVE it!

 

To whoever is considering stopping, don't. You'll thank yourself how well it works after the purging period is over (about 2-3 weeks)

Clears dark spots!

I've had acne all throughout high school and into my college. Once I started to use this product all of my dark spots have gone away. I've been using this product for about 2 years now and my skin is clear and smooth with no dark spots. This product is the best thing that has happened to my face! I recommend getting it with Acne.org's Benzoyl Peroxide treatment, but DO NOT use both on your face. I will use the treatment in the morning and at night, but every other week, for one night, I would use the glycolic acid, instead. Only use this product once a week or once every 2 weeks, this product is strong especially when you are using the benzoyl peroxide treatment. But using these two together is what helped my acne and skin clear up.

This was the key to my great skin
After suffering with acne for so long this moisturizer and dark spot treatment literally took my skin from clear to perfect and all my really really dark spots are pretty much gone. I suffered with cystic acne all down the side of my face and they left these horrible marks. I literally regained confidence again after using this for about 4 months

Just tried on my back. Very very good results!
I started this treatment on 12 July on face and back. Firstly, I had a little break out on my face at the second day so I decided try it just on my back for the moment. I worked perfect! My back was always with acne but in 2 weeks it was cleared. Just some marks but it is smooth and that with 5 weeks. I will try on my face and after at least 6-8 weeks i'll post the results. Thanks!

Holy Grail
I've been using the regimen for a year now. When I say I have tried every damn thing on the market. From doctors to expensive over the counter items. I didn't believe this would work even after seeing the Youtube videos. In my mind, these products were too affordable to actually work but I was wrong. I had severe cystic acne that whether I popped them or not they left a dark mark on my face. I was using a clarisonic for about 3 months and I have always felt like if what I used wasn't rough on my face it wouldn't get rid of my acne. Long story short, I came on this site from hearing about it on youtube and did some research and I read that the the clarisonic was making my acne worst. I ordered the 3 step regimen and I didn't see much of a difference in the first couple of days but 1 week went by and my face started severely peeling and that's when I knew I was on to something good. I still used makeup to cover the scars. I also went from using my clarisonic every day to only once a week to get rid of the peeling skin and one month later my face started looking much better. It has been 1 year and 4 months and I've got very very faint marks from recent acne but it has been a complete 360!!! I also just recommended the Glycolic Acid to my aunt who got burned from laser removal and it's been 2 months and she can't believe the results. No doctor could do for her what acne.org did! You guys rock!

AHA treatment
I combine this with my benzoyl peroxide when applying to my skin and leave it over night on acne prone skin and it works wonders!! Usually gets rid of all the bacteria causing me to break out and its gentle enough for my skin. Love it.
