Pros:

Best acne cream on the market bar none! This stuff will make a formed pimple disappear overnight and will also prevent new breakouts from forming. use dove soap as your cleanser.

Cons:

This stuff is expensive if you don't have insurance. (about $180.00) I use two tubes a month because one isn't enough to be effective. You need to smear more on your face to have it work to full potential.

Best Acne cream when used in abundance. Put even extra Duac on formed pimples ( a FULL glob!) and let the magic begin. For even more effectiveness use Omniceff 300mg antibiotic pills twice a day to kill even more acne causing bacteria. ( 1 month =$300.00 for Omniceff) This combo works!!!!! The only other treatment that can compare is Accutain.

Pros:

Clears up stubborn acne where others fail. Is easy to apply and does not dry out skin too much if used as directed.

Cons:

When first used it cause some redness and swelling but it went away quickly afterward. Doesn't seem to work on back or chest acne.

It is a good product to pair with other products such as Tretinoin. I have been trying many different "miracle treatments" such as Acne Complex and Proactiv which were a complete waste of money, but a week after using the Duac gel my acne began clearing up and redness of the zits diminished. Stick with it everyday and wait for it to work its magic.

Pros:

Unfortunately nothing, this product was definately not the right one for me.

Cons:

Used this product once and will never use again, It severely burnt my skin leaving my whole face with bright red blotches, it was so bad I had to go to the local hospital a&e department.

A highly expensive product which I believe can do more damage to your skin than good. I would rather have acne on my face than use this product again.

Pros:

Works like a charm.I use small amounts an it also covers my face. I see results over night that i would'nt have gotten within one month.

Cons:

needs to be refrigerated. if you put on too much, it'll make your skin dry

It works. I have super sensitive skin and i had severe acne 3 years ago. i never thoguht any medication was out there to help get rid ouf my breakouts but Duac helps a lot.It cleared up most of my breakouts ( or breakouts that were going to happen)overnight. i'm very happy that my skin is a lot clearer vs. when i first started using Duac.

Pros:

It make my skin feel smooth after I apply it. It have cleared up my mild but stubbern acne.

Cons:

My face is always red..but I also go tanning and use multiple products. I use proactive to wash my face in the Am and the apply benzaclin before my bare minerals make up..at night I use proactive to wash and then rosula medicated pads to make

sure all of my makeup is gone..then apply te proactive refining mask all night! this system works amazinggggg its a lot but i HATE PIMPLES...the only time I really break out is if I drink alcohol or before my period. REMEMBER ALWAYS USE OIL FREE PRODUCTS...make up and lotions!!! NEVER EVER PUT OILY PRODUCTS ON YOUR FACE even if you have dry skin..you are just asking for trouble. nicomide vitamins are also really helpful in reducing redness NOT PIMPLES. in case of emergencys mush up tylenol and add a small amount of water to make a past and add directly to the problem overnight if possible...good luck!

Pros:

Clears everything from harsh acne, to one pimple which is just beginning to surface!

Cons:

This product can become very addictive due to the excellent results, and caused dryness for me around the nose.

I was recommended this product through a friend of my mothers. Her son used the product and was extremely pleased with the results, and so am i. After suffering with pimples since the age of 12, many years on i am still using Duac and will continue to until my skin problems are visibly over. I am very pleased with this product and recommend Duac to anyone who isn't pleased with there own skin at current.

Pros:

Cleared up my acne!!

Cons:

small tube

I had mild acne for years that would never go away. I tried every over the counter product I could find and spent a fortune until years later i eventualy went to the doctor and she prescribed me duac gel. The got positive results almost immediately.(It makes scars take longer to heal though) I noticed continual improvements and my acne fully went away after using duac for about 3 months. I continue to use it to stop the acne coming back. I put it on at night, in the morning i use neutrogena dry touch sunblock to moisturize. The result: soft smooth oil/acne free skin, yay!!

Pros:

will work extremely well for a time if your skin is sturdy

Cons:

after a while, your skin will not tolerate the product. makes skin unbearably sensitive.

if you have sensitive skin, you will be left with a scab-like look on your face, like somebody painted on your face with red paint, for a week or more. it is truly horrifying, and impossible to hide with makeup. if you dont have sensitive skin, you will get amazing results, clear up your acne completely, while you remain using the product. acne will return when you stop using it.

Pros:

For my moderate to severe acne prone skin, I began to see less pimples in in days. The gel also helped lighthen severe scarring from past breakouts.

Cons:

Very dry skin is my only side effect. The use of a good moisturizer and drinking alot of water works for me.

Washing my face with unscented dove and the use of this topical cream has been the best thing that has happen to my skin in years. I am also taking Doryx for severe acne sufferers which has also been a huge help. So be patient and let the medicine do it's magic and you will be very satisfied.
