To early to tell

Cons:

Very EXSPENSIVE!!! Skin is incredibly oily.

Today make on week and so far no dramatic results. In the past Duac and Tretinoin worked wonders but I am seeing a derm and prescribed ziana first. So, well shall see and I will keep you posted.

Pros:

non

Cons:

greasy, ineffective

i don't know what type of acne ziana is targeted for, but my dermatologist prescribed it to me for the moderate cystic acne on my chin and cheeks. i used it consistently for for about three months and saw literally no improvement. it is also unbelievably expensive for a non-antibiotic topical (about 75.00 per tube, with my insurance).

Pros:

Reduced blemish size
Reduced redness
Worked fast

Cons:

Made skin extremely dry
Smells bad
Gave me a chemical burn( my fault)
Not gentile at all

For a prescription acne medication I feel it falls under par due to it's side effects. It makes the skin flaky and doesn't look good at all. Being a guy I don't wear coverup or anything so it looks just as bad as the zits. Made my face really red too for some reason. Try something else before using this, something gentler.

Pros:

Simple application
Cheap

Cons:

Irritating
Drying/scaling
Extream purging
Not effective

I had used this because my previous prescriptions weren't working as well as normal, so I visted my derm and she recommended I try Ziana. The resultes were devestating, I went in for very, very mild acne, and traded it for a case moderate acne covering my entire face. It was not only frustrating, but both physically and emotionaly painful. I couldn't sleep on my side, smile, eat, talk, sneeze or even laugh without being reminded of my acne, the constant trobbing even disrupted my sleep. Finally I did find something that worked, a combonation of Tazorac gel and Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo, my face has much improved, and I will never take my skin for granted again.

Pros:

seems very light weight, no fregrnance

Cons:

seems too honeyish. Vey expensive, pharmacy wanted to charge me whole price (170 something) but I called my insurance and they ended up covering it

I have not used it yet. I never had bad acne, until a month ago when I broke out like NEVER EVER before. I mean, I would normally have a pimple or two, but never on my forehead, nose or chin area. Now I have my whole forehead covered with grain size dots and a few whiteheads (which make me gag when I look at myself) and my cheeks and the whole chin area. My derm has no idea where it came from so she put me on cefdinir.... anyone ever heard of?! And ziena ... I am crying my eyes out because I look like a pizza face ... She refuses to put me on accutane though. Makes me so sad. I count days until my next appointment.
