Pros:

I am 13 and I have never had acne before. I broke out over the summer because I didn't get enough sun.. But now its winter and I needed something to clear me up. My dematologist recommened this product! It has cleared my skin up AMAZINGLY :D.

Cons:

It burns like crazy the first few weeks..
Your skin is peely but only till it gets used to the product.
what acne treatment doesn't though?

It works GOOD :D I recommend it for people with severe acne. I didn't have that bad acne but it cleared it up FAST! like 2 months and I was good. I get a tiny pimple or just one big pimple everyonce in a while. If I don't pop it, it goes away in about 3 days.. You should try thisss :DDDDD

Pros:

I've had acne for over a decade. Benzaclin, if you use it, works pretty well. I hasn't cured my acne, but when I put it on twice daily it seem to make it clear up for the most part. I recommend it if you can live with the cons.

Cons:

*It bleaches towels, collars, pillows, etc. If I put it on my neck and then sweat or get wet somehow, it bleeds onto my clothes and has altered or almost ruined a lot of my non-white shirts. I hate that about this product.

It is effective if used correctly and regularly. No acne medicine is a magic bullet, so it really comes down to finding what works for you and living with the cons of the product (dry skins, peeling, irritation, expense, etc.). I like this product except for the bleaching. It is very annoying and has ruined a number of my shirts, towels, and pillows (much to the shagrin of my lovely wife).

Pros:

This stuff basically got rid of all my major breakouts. I do experience a few random, but tiny, pimples every now and then, but other than that all the obvious ones are gone, saving me from so many scarring possibilities.

Cons:

It doesn't get rid of actualy SCARS. Red marks are still there. Makes the skin really PALE... I do not like this because it makes me look kind of sick. Also bleaches fabrics.

I think it has made a huge difference, and it is the best I've used so far. I have tried Pro-activ, all the drug store products (neutrogena, clean and clear, oxy, clearisil.. etc) and this is the best product I have tried. When it comes to dryness, alll you need to do is use a lotion along with it, and it's completely fine. I've only used it for 3 months now, and will continue for another 3 months. I really don't like that it makes me pale. If you do not mind being pale, then it is definately perfect for you. Also, if you have insurance it's really worth it.

Pros:

It works, and it works quickly! I have used everything, and nothing has been able to clear up the blackheads on my nose. Benzaclin obliterated the blackheads on my nose in less than a week! It also works wonders for acne, of course!

Cons:

It made my skin itch really badly the first week that I began using it. It's very drying, but again, I only noticed the really bad drying for the first week. It's expensive! It has benzoyl peroxide in it, so of course it will probably stain clothes.

I have tried everything. I have tried home remedies, antibiotics, salicylic acid and benzoyl peroxide face-washes, pads, scrubs and face-masks! But nothing I have ever used has worked as well as Benzaclin. Benzaclin is the swiss army knife of all acne medications. Pimples? Gone! Blackheads? History! Benzaclin is the closest that we have come to a cure for acne. It's expensive, but it is absolutely worth it! The best combination that I have found is to use an exfoliating facial scrub before applying the Benzaclin (St. Ives Apricot Scrub, for example) and of course to take some sort of oral antibiotic. Again, it's expensive. I'm not sure if it's worth $100+ for someone just getting by, but if you have insurance and can get it for $50 or less -- do it!

Pros:

Really clears up your skin. I cleared up about 85% of my acne.

Cons:

Kind of expensive. Drying.

But most importantly: It starts to become inaffective after a while. I used it for 2 years and I'd say after 8 months it didn't work as well as it used to. Still kept most acne at bay, but I experienced more bre

Good if you are a teenager just going through hormonal acne. But if you experience adult acne you might want something with more durability. I still had a good experience with this product and I'm glad it kept me clear for as long as it did.

Pros:

Clears skin in about a week, never have pimples again.

Cons:

Your skin gets very dry if you don't use a moisturizer. A simple OTC moisturizer works just well.

You should really get this product. It works very well and it is worth thet money. This little ounce of cream will boost your self-confidence 100%.

Pros:

It gets rid of ALL your pimples, and you rarely have any breakouts if you wash your face twice a day, too.

Cons:

Okay... there's a lot. My skin is really dry now and flakes all the time. I've tried like four different moisturizers, and they all have either burned my face more or my skin just dried out within ten minutes. Oh & I got sun burn in the middle of Nov

Clears away all your acne, for the price of dry skin.

Pros:

My skin was "jacked up" for about 5 months. I triend everything even an organic diet. Then a co-worker recommended this procduct. My face was noticeably smoother with in 3 or 4 days. I have only been using it for two weeks and it's working great!

Cons:

Excessive dryness and peeling. Just use a moisterizer first before applying the Benzaclin and it helps to counteract the dryness.

I would recommend this product to anyone who has a bad case of acne. It works so good and so fast. But you still got to drink your water everyday and stay away from sugar. Drinking water flushes out the impurities in your body and helps the product to work even better.
