Pros:

Fast results, as least in my case. Skin completely clear in problem areas in less than a week. Not very drying at all when combined with a good moisturizer.

Cons:

Not sure yet. Have to be careful with sun exposure?

I have been on Ziana for about 6 days. I am hoping that if anything adverse was going to happen, it would have happened by this point. I am 26 and had moderate acne when I was a teenager. I did Accutane at a young age and that saved me; no problems for the past ten years or so. I started breaking out on my forehead and chin this year, mostly blackheads/whiteheads. I went to a dermatologist last week and she put me on a regimen to include Ziana at night. In the AM and PM I use something called Lipid Drops from Cosmedical, which is an amazing product to help retain moisture. Remember to use Ziana SPARINGLY. The doctor told me the two teeny tiny sample tubes will last a month. I bet a lot of reactions come from using too much. I had a tiny bit of peeling the first two days, and feel a little dry at night, but I don't care. It's working!!

Pros:

Cleared up my skin about 75%, Face, chest and back. Has cleared almost all blackheads on my nose and has definitely helped decrease the amount of small bumps I had under my skin mostly on cheeks and forehead. I love how smooth my skin feels.

Cons:

Some flaking around chin and cheeks but nothing too serious. I dab on some moisturizer and it goes away. Since this is something you use at night before bed I dont like the greasy wet feeling it leaves on your face but since I am sleeping I guess it doesnt really matter.

My face acne is moderate mostly small bumps under the skin that looks horrible under certain lighting. A couple of cystic pimples on my temples and a few small pimples on my cheeks and forehead. Small pimples on my chest and cystic full blown acne all over my back that just started this yr. I have been struggling with acne since I was 14 now 27. I had seen dermatologist before and nothing worked. I got on the Yaz birth control and that seemed to help alot then it all came right back this last year even with being on Yaz. I went to one dermatologist she said its time for Accutane, with all the reviews I was afraid due to certain side effects. I went for a second opinion to another dermatologist and she recommended I get on Spirolactone 25mg 2x day, Yaz birth control, Minocycline 65mg 1xday, Aczone gel and Ziana. It been 4 weeks now that I saw my derm and my face has definitely improved and I know it should be getting better since they say it takes several months to see real results. First 2 weeks there was definitely a purge, 1 cheek, then the other cheek then the forehead. I also had to stop Minocycline last week because of discoloration it gave my fingers nails. I feel that Ziana may not work for everyone the same way but I am so far very happy with the results whenever I dab it on at night the next morning I wash my face and it is much more smoother and radiant.

Pros:

Clears skin quickly

Cons:

Leaves skin flakey and dry

Only use twice a week and I have clear skin. Althought the day after I use it my skin is dried out. Moisturizer is a must!

Pros:

My face looks refreshed and clear.

Cons:

I didn't think it was working at first because my face wasn't peeling like it did with other stuff.

My face looks soooo much better than it did. Even though my doctor said it would take 12 weeks to see results, I saw results after just 3. I love this product. You really don't have to use very much and it lasts for a long time.

So happy!

Pros:

Cleared acne
side effects go away

Cons:

Made my skin flaky
My skin is still red

I am 13, and for about a year or two I struggled with acne. I literally was obsessed with my skin. I was spending my free time looking up reviews of products and trying everything from cheap drug store products to expensive department store one and getting facials with my own money. All I can say is stop wasting your time and money looking for other products other than Epiduo. It took me a couple of months to start working and I'm happy to say that face is acne free. I was also using another product that I got from my Dermatologist gave me called Epiduo which was amazing also. I have to admit that my skin is a little more red than usual after using this wonderful product, but it can easily be concealed with a BB cream or tinted moisturizer. This a an amazing product that really does work! Please do not waste your time trying everything! Get to your nearest dermatologist and get Ziana!

Pros:

has no bad smell, seems to work at first, overall could be good for some people

Cons:

may take a long time to work, no side affects, try it!

I've been taking this product for one month. It seemed to help my acne at first, but now it just seems to be building up an "immunity" to my body so it doesn't wrk anymore. Derm. gave me little samples so I haven't actually bought any yet. I'm in my early teens, going to keep trying it, derm. also prescribed a prescription for solodyn. very scared to take it!

Pros:

Made my skins look AMAZING. It makes my skin look fresh and goes on easily. Cleared my cystic acne and my little pimples on my forehead and chin.

Cons:

It took a very long time for me to see FULL results -- about 3 months. I was getting very disappointed but I kept using it because I heard that it can take a while to completely work its magic. Stick with it because you will not be disappointed
