Pros:

It works but you need patiences, I have acne vulgaris (a really bad one)alot, but it dried it out in 3 weeks.

Cons:

Your skin will get dry, tight,itchy sometimes. I think you got to have an oral antibiotics for people that has bad ones, moderate people no need.. but get a really good doctor, its your face your dealing with...

This product is very good. It works for me (if you really have a bad one ask for antibiotics) for faster results and to lessen the breakout and redness,you got to have insurance to get a good price....and patience coz i have a bad one and i saw the changes in 3 weeks and im very oily and sensitive, my pores are huge you can see just by looking on a regular mirror... so i guess it works.

Pros:

reduces size of pimples which eventually go away. Also reduces redness. leaves skin totally oil free

Cons:

somewhat dries the skin but if u only use it at night it doesnt matter because after u wash ur face in the morning and put on oil-free lotion, the dryness is gone

it works pretty well. I am very glad i started to use it. Most of my pimples have gone away already and its only been a week. I only had moderate acne but it still really bugged me. I had some main trouble spots on my chean and the top left of my forhead and they are completely cleared up although there is some scarring which will eventually go away. i still have 1 or 2 pimples but my trouble spots were completety cleared up.

Pros:

Works QUICK!!! Stops pimple growth and gets rid of oily skin.

Cons:

For the first hour or to after using it, i mean every time, it feels like ur skin is stuck. Its like ur face hardens.

Works better than any other on the market. Great when used with Minocycline.

Pros:

It really clears it up. : )
I dont really have that bad acne. its just an occastional pimples. But clears them up. : )

Cons:

Theres a couple. But I still love it.
1. Bleaches clothes.
2. If you miss a day or two pimples start to come. (but the day after they are usually gone). 3. In the winter it dries your skin out a little.

Try it. : ) and trust me. youll love it. : )

Pros:

I've been using it for 2 days, but I've seen good results already. Most of my redness is gone, and is left slighty pink. My skin has been very oily lately because of the humidity, but I think Duac has been controlling the oil.

Cons:

I'd rather use a pump, but the tube isn't a trouble to dispense.

Very good product, it'll cost alot if you don't have insurance to cover the costs.

Pros:

I have always struggled with acne. I have been on oral atibiotics for many years and the acne never cleared. I started using Duac and I love it. It's cleared my skin up beautifully. I have been using it for 5 months. I use it twice a day, a.m. &p.m

Cons:

None

I am so happy with Duac and will recommend it 100% to anyone who wants to get rid of the acne.

Pros:

it really does do a good job. doesnt burn or doesnt leave marks

Cons:

leaves my skin a lil oily and can get costly.

try it, it does work. Teatree oil/pro-activ doesnt work if you keep getting pimples, it may work fine for adults who dont get it as much but for teens and young adults who always get a breakout, i reccomend duac!

Pros:

Works fast, does not leave skin feeling greasy or heavy. Absorbs well. The only medicine that has cleared up my acne that I've stuggled with for 15 years.

Cons:

Very drying. Skin burns and is flakey. Need to use sparingly. Also very expensive unless insurance covers.

I would recommend this product. I have been on Retin A, Differin, and a bunch of oral anti-biotics and nothing has worked as well for me. Just wish it wasn't so expensive.

Pros:

if you skip a night or two, your skin will still be clear; side effects are mild; very easy to use;

Cons:

takes a LONG time to be effective; dries out your skin; sun exposure makes face red

this product is excellent. you avoid all of the extreme side effects like people have seen with accutane, but you still treat the acne. i would definitely recommend this as an acne solution. i have tried several different treatment plans, including pro-activ, retina-micro, and every stor-bought product on the shelf, and none are as effective as Benzaclin. :)
