Pros:

starts improving fast, easy to apply not time consuming, acne gradually goes away if consisten

Cons:

pealing in certian areas as well as burning ( almost sun burnt) dry all over but not to bad with some moisturizer

its a good product if you stick with it while using it consistently however i find it will not remove 100% of my hormonal acne but has still cleared it up considerably and is constantly getting better

Pros:

Cleared up my skin in just a few days!

Cons:

Turned a small, barely-there whitehead into a huge cyst, but eventually dried it out.

I've had pretty severe acne for the last 9 years. I've tried every over-the-counter treatment and have a few different prescriptions, and this has been the best treatment I've found. It quickly dries up zits and has begun to clear up all of the acne on my chin. I use a great moisturizer every day, and that helps with the drying. I only use Benzaclin at night to prevent overdrying. It's a bit expensive, but you can print off a rebate on the Benzaclin website!

Pros:

Works extremly fast...only for about 6 months then it wears off.

Cons:

flakey skin, alittle redness

if used continually then you will see major improvements. Almost all acne is gone with just a little redness left. I stopped using after 6 months beause it didn't seem to work as well...then began about a month later and it worked great again!

Pros:

Get rid of pimples, blackheads etc.

Cons:

Makes your skin dry, and flaky.

This product worked great for me!! I had a few big pimples on my forhead and some on my cheek but now the size is reducing. I recomend this to anyone who has problem with acne or breakouts! :]

Pros:

I have used Duac for years! Prior to it, I had tried everything including over the counter products to even prescribed products including Reti-A-Micro (in which I highly do not recommend). Duac has been the only product that has help me!

Cons:

Peeling but it is a small piece to pay because it is treating the acne.

Highly Recommended! I just wish it would be a little less expensive but I do like that a SPC lotion cleanser is now being included with a 45g tube of Duac.

Pros:

I didn't have severe ance but I would get a few big pimples on my face, and I had back ance and chest ance and this stuff worked amazingly! It cleared up fast and nicely.

Cons:

Dries your skin out, and if you apply a lot it makes your face stiff feeeling.

I recommend this stuff to anyone who has ance is trying to get nice skin! Seriously, I love this stuff.

Pros:

easy to use, tightens skin, clears the spot quite quick.

Cons:

not sure it lasts

I have been using it on and off for a few months, dont have to use it all the time. However, i did loose it and have had an outbreak recently. so maybe need to use it every other day which is good. i have had acne for over ten years. i have used Roaccutane which i bought over net - the doctor would not give it to me. i guess i am like i have never had serve acne. But it has still is extremley hard for me - like all of us. i think Duac is a quick fix and i think acne is emtional . use this if you have moderate acne and occassional outbreaks. maybe not the best prodcut for long term

Pros:

Just use Benzaclin for the first time, so far so good..... No burning just makes my skin feel tight anf incredibly soft. Adult Acne is my issue, Also taking doxycycline as well. I'm excited to see if this will affect cysts.

Cons:

none at this point :)

too soon to say. I am all about a clear complexion though, Cost was free recd numerouse free samples, I have nothing to loose at this point

Pros:

It does clear up the skin, it may take a little while though. Better than most creams.

Cons:

Dries out your skin, and bleaches everything!!!! Expensive without insurance!

I have had bad acne since I was 12, it hasn't gone away. I started using this when I was about 12-17 and it did wonders. My face started to get worse...because my face built up immunity to the product. I got off of it and have been on other creams and pills. However, looking back at pictures my acne was amazing then! I'm considering getting another prescription for it soon. Im going into college and need something I can COUNT ON!
