If you have insurance wont cost alot! Only have to apply once a day.

Cons:

I have had some flakiness but not as bad as the first couple days..

I just started it to start working. I did breakout worse than usual which they say happens.. It has only been a week and I am hoping my face gets better b4 Xmas. Kinda wondering when most people started seeing a difference.. Also on a antiboctic

Pros:

Once a day application makes it easy to use. I have had no noticeable drying and any redness is temporary. After one and a half months, I've had no major breakouts.

Cons:

I've experienced some slight burning sensation a few times when cleansing my skin (using Cetaphyl normal/oily) but quickly goes away.

I used to get big, under the surface cystic acne on my chin area and some smaller whitehead acne around the nose area. Since using Ziana, I have not had one cystic breakout and maybe one small whitehead near my nose. I am very happy with the results and my skin looks great every day!

Pros:

Put on at night. Decreases the amount of pimples.

Cons:

Made my skin very dry and have to use clean and clear oil free moisturizer.

Good product doesnt totally take care of it though. but also didnt have to pay anything because my dermatologist gave bunch of sample tubes for FREE! ask yours!

Pros:

Cleared up my acne completely. Did not dry me out like Differin did. Switched from Differin to Epiduo (which was even worse than Differin) and then to Ziana. NO dry skin and made it easy to put on my makeup without it looking cracked.

Cons:

Gel is watery so you need so much less than you need with Differin or Epiduo. I wish my doctor would have told me that, because if you put on too much, it can feel sticky. The right amount will give you great skin and no bad dryness.

AMAZING. I have tried Retin-A Micro, Atralin, Differin, and Epiduo and was about to give up. This is the only retinoid that worked for me without making my face a dessert and flaky and making it impossible to put on my foundation every day. I LOVE Ziana!!

Pros:

Got rid of my acne!

Cons:

The gel is kind of sticky, but I only used it at night, before bed so it was okay.
Also, it made me more susceptible to sunburn. I'm sure that applying sunscreen would fix this though.

This product worked very well for me. I have been using it for about 2-3 months now. Another tip: take Vitamin E, A, and Omega-3 supplements daily. Trust me, it helps! And extra Vitamin C wouldn't hurt either.

Pros:

worked completely, best product ever tried

Cons:

i put a 3 for cost bc the derma gave me a coupon that makes it cheap for 3 months...once thats gone i heard its very expensive so i prob wont be able to afford it :/

Only about a week in using this, have tried many other products/vitamins/etcetc but this is my first foray into prescription stuff... honestly its the only thing ive actually seen work. i have not had a single pimple since starting, the old ones have gone away by now and i am so happy my skin has never looked better. doesnt bother my skin or dry it out at all...i know this is probably unusual at how well i have reacted to this but its the truth. try it yourself maybe itll work!

at first it dried my face out and made it peel. it made my skin yellow. i stopped using it for a week, and my face broke out all over again.

this product works. but the use of it must be consistent.

Pros:

Cleared up existing acne right away. Face is smooth the next day. Only have to apply it once daily. Doesn't burn at all and doesn't cause any redness.

Cons:

Face gets sticky after you have it on. Can be expensive if you don't have a savings card from your Dr.

Works great! Also taking solodyn once daily. Skin is very smooth. Haven't had any flakiness or dryness at all. My face will get pretty oily at the end of the day though...
