Pros:

None so far.

Cons:

Allergic reaction.

I'm not going to be too quick to lay the blame squarely on Ziana, but I started using Ziana about three days ago, after my dermatologist prescribed it for me. By the second night after I started to use it, I got an allergic reaction on my arms and wrist area (like hives). I thought it was too odd of a place for it to be from Ziana and chalked it up to eating something I didn't know I was allergic to. It went away very quickly. Last night was the third night and today, I'm having a very bad allergic reaction. This time it's on my face as well. Unfortunately my derm isn't available on weekends so I have to wait until next week to get any answers from him, but I'm not sure if it's from Ziana. I'm hoping it's not. I'm not going to use it tonight and see what happens. Has this occured to anyone else? Or maybe someone you know of with not only Ziana but any acne prescription? I've never had an allergic reaction to anything else before, so it's really odd for me.<

Pros:

i just started using, so i have hi hopes! people here say its doing a fine job

Cons:

It does make your acne worse, the first couple of weeks. You just have to stick to your guns and ride it through.

An acne product that makes acne worse?? well it was explained to me that it kind of gathers all the oil on your face, body concentrates it there then it disperses leaving less oil. (think of how the death star fires, it charges then shoots). SO yeah it does suck having worse acne then when i started, but ill hold out and see if it works. The only downside is, its not that flattering and its California, everybody here is a critic lol.

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.

Pros:

Cleared some acne

Cons:

Made me break out by my side burns and a few pimples here and their.

I have moderate acne not like cystic but i get like 5-10 average sized then small ones by my forehead and chin. I got ziana gel subscribed by my doctor and he told me it takes 1 month to work but idk its been like 2 1/2 weeks and i dont see to many improvements. I used Oil-Free Moisture from Neutrogena in the shower(once a day) And i have used every type of acne cream, i am still afraid of accutane and other pills. Facewash i really only use soap or Neutrogena wash with like beads, its weird.

Pros:

Works! Best stuff I've ever used. Takes a couple weeks, and then perfectly clear skin. Better than anything I have EVER used... and I've used EVERYTHING.

Cons:

Too darn expensive. No insurance coverage over a certain age.. I think it's like 34 or 37. This is MY insur company... your co might be different. When I had coverage, I paid $15. Otherwise... it's like $250.

If your insur covers, GET IT! If not, you better be rich.

Pros:

Tube lasts a long time - I bought mine in April and I still have at least 25% of it left.

Cons:

Didn't work for me. Dries skin out. Be sure to moisturize religiously and use a very gentle cleanser.

I used proactive along with birth control pills for years and my skin was always "ok". It was by no means great but it wasn't the worst. I had to be taken off the birth control pills and within a matter of weeks my skin was atrocious. I dealt with it with over the counter products for a year before I gave up and went to see a derm. He prescribed Duac and Ziana - alternating between the two each night. My skin definitely got worse before it got better however I see no overall great improvement. Instead of getting big, monster pimples I just have lots of smaller ones. I placed a lot of hope in this product and it let me down. My dermatologist said it would take about 3 months to see results. it's been 5 and i'm no better off. Maybe it works miracles for some people but it didn't do anything for me. I'm going to see a new dermatologist this week.

Pros:

Clears up skin really fast, and evens out skin tone.

Cons:

Makes you break out pretty badly the first 1-3 weeks you use it.

It works. It makes your break out the first few weeks, but it clears up those breakouts really quickly. Make sure to get a coupon from your dermatologist...its worth it
