Pros:

I used it in the summer before school and it helped get rid of my acne almost completely!

Cons:

- It takes quite a while, it took me like two months to completely get rid of my acne, annoying to leave on my face, acne came back when I discontinued the use.

Overall it works great, but I recommend drinking green tea as well and lots of water. Also buy a good moisturizer and face wash, likr Cetaphil. Worth buying for sure though.

Pros:

Reacts fast
Clears up acne =)

Cons:

You need to use it on a regular basis or you'll breakout, and $50+ every time is a bit expensive =
It drys out my skin a little bit but nothing noticable. If you drink enough water you don't even need a moisturizer.

Good but expensive. It also takes a while to clear up completely but be patient =)

Pros:

I have been using it for a bit over a year. Clindoxyl gel really helped my skin and it was quick. I didnt experience any dryness or redness, and you can use it with makeup without getting extra breakouts.

Cons:

It worked really well the first year and now i found it has worn off and my acne is slowly returning.

Out of the dozens of medications i have tried this has worked the best, and its only one simple dosage a day. Try it, but DO NOT mix it with other acne medications.

Pros:

Been using it for 10 days and i've noticed amazing results! I have no pimples on my face, usually i have 2 to 3 at a time. Hopefully it continues to work.

Cons:

None really besides making my face dry. But well worth it.

Ask your doctor about this product, you have nothing to lose.

Pros:

It works. I used to be unreconisable with my acne. My face was a burning red all over , but now, it's a milder red and my acne...isn't all gone. Some of it's still there, especially on my forehead.

Cons:

Drys out your skin.

I still have a ton of scars and acne on my forehead, chin and the sides of my nose but compared to what I looked like before, it is awesome. I love it. I wouldd not be able to live without it.

Pros:

After even the first day it clered up my skin so much!!!! It didn't hurt and was pretty easy to use.

Cons:

It did make my skin pretty dry, but thats also because I swim like everyday.

So far I really like it and it seems to be clearing up my skin really fast!! Its only been like 3 days and i hope this good experience will continue. As well i find that the best cleanser is Cetaphil oily skin cleanser and the best mositurizer is Cetaphil daily moisturizing lotion. This stuff works and im glad i tried it. Its way better than any over the counter products!! Now im not embarassed to show my face. i'm proud and can let it shine!! :) :)

Pros:

Fairly fast and effective results. Side-effects are small and manageable, definitely worth it.

Cons:

Skin feels tight first couple of weeks of usage, also gets dry and flaky occasionally. Itchiness and redness occurs if you stop using it for a couple days.

I saw noticeable results after a few weeks, best acne treatment I've tried. I haven't used it in a month though, and the pimples are coming back.

Good temporary solution

Pros:

Works

Cons:

Burns, my cheek is very red, dry and stinging since last night

I have cystic acne on one cheek and I've been using this for about five days. Most of the inflammation is gone and only 3 pimples left out of 15, they were the biggest and I think they'll go away soon. However the derm never told me how much to apply and I think I apply too much, using overnight.
