Pros:

Not very expensive

Cons:

My acne is worse.

I have used Ziana for 3 months. I have been patient as I knew my acne would get worse before it got better. However, 3 months later, my skin has shown NO improvement. My self esteem is so low. This stuff is terrible.

Pros:

Rebate card made it affordable.

Cons:

drying, made my face break out worse than before i even went to the dermatologist

Help! I starting taking Ziana about 4 weeks ago. At first, I didnt notice any change at all and now this week all of a sudden my face has been overrun by large cystic acne! Im so embarrassed and depressed and Im tempted to stop taking Ziana--Ill just live with what my skin looked like beforehand! How true is it that your skin gets worse before it gets better and how long is that supposed to last?? I havent even noticed this medication making a difference on blackheads. Will my skin get worse if I just stop cold turkey?!!

Pros:

I can't think of one...

Cons:

did not help acne.

this product was a little expensive and did not clear acne at all. I think my dermatologist told me to use this as a spot treatment and it did not actually do anything.

Pros:

I can feel it working. Some days my skin is clearer than others, but I have only been on it 3 weeks.

Cons:

This is my 3rd week on Zania and my chin area is completely broken out. I'm so embarrassed I don't even want to walk outside, or go to social events. However, my derm told me that this will take about 6 weeks to start working. I'm so tired of using products that do not work on my skin! I'm praying that Zania will start working soon!! I'm not going to give up until my 7 week check up, by then if I'm still breaking out I'm done with Zania.

This product has not worked right away for me. I am breaking out wose than I was before, but I hope that is part of the process.

Pros:

AMAZING PRODUCT! I never really had skin problems but all of a sudden i developed deep, painful pimples that wouldn't go away and were starting to scar my fair skin so I went to the derm & he gave me a sample and within a few days my skin cleared up and i know longer had cysts under my skin. i have not had a pimple since i used it. AMAZING!

Cons:

A bit drying so I would only put it on at night.

Amazing product that worked right away. Would recommend it to anyone!

Pros:

Almost all clear!

Cons:

Burning, peeling, itching, soreness, initial breakout, made scars stand out

The first few weeks I used Ziana, I definitely thought that I was going to quit. I have used tretinoin in the past and it did not work out. I was extremely nervous when my derm prescribed me this (I have very fair and sensitive skin). At first I experienced a major breakout within a week. It was horrible. My skin got extremely oily and then dried out. It itched and stung. My face was sore to the touch. But, now about four weeks later my skin is way better. I still have a few tiny bumps and my scars seem to stand out more, but hopefully they will start to fade. One thing to note it that this product is very thin and runs out of the tube easily, so you can end up putting too much on. You want to use as small amount as possible and I only use at night. I mix it with a fragrance free and dye free lotion to get it to spread easier. Overall I'm very happy, but I think that I'll probably end up switching to something else once the card runs out because my insurance doesn't cover it.

Pros:

It made the first 1 and a half a nightmare, just made everything worse, after that though my skin cleared up PERFECTLY! Everything is awesome now and i an pimple free!! I <3 Ziana!

Cons:

They gel makes you skin super oily!!! IT feels sort of rough and dry on your skin. Be sure JUST TO USE A LITTLE BIT! Thats the secret*

1st week: Its a nightmare, everything is bad! 2nd Week- things start to FEEL better. 3rd week: Wow i can tell a little bit of a difference. 4th week: Wow im so close to acne frree! 5th week: I'm cleared up! Go Ziana!! Give it some time, just a little, it'll get bad, just stay with it! Ill garenttee you it clears up!! PROMISE!

Pros:

I heard it is amazing and will work in a couple of weeks, i use it every other day.

Cons:

My skin got so much worse and its only been about 1 week and a half will it clear up? i think it is supposed to do this to bring out all the bad stuff but im still skeptical

My skin has gotten worse but everyone says its supposed to do this in the first 1,2 or 3 weeks then your skin will clear up perfectly! even brown spots after the pimple. imm going to keep trying it.
