Pros:

only started getting acne four years ago. doctor prescribed clindoxyl; after two weeks i am seeing a huge improvement. i also use biotherm which works really well especially for evening skin tone and removing marks, so together its all good.

Cons:

really dried out skin.

i originally had really oily skin so my doctor suggested twice a day to apply but i couldnt take the dryness so i do the regular biotherm routine in the day and at night i wash my face and use the toner and then apply the clindoxyl. worth trying if you really need a quick fix as oppose to waiting to get an appointment with a derm.

Pros:

It does clear up acne fast, if you put it on a single zit, it will be gone in 2 days or so. It clears up acne and makes lightens up scars.

Cons:

If you use too much you are going to start getting very very dry skin. Only put a small amount.

This is a great product I highly recommend it. I use it every night and wake up with better skin than I had before. I think you should only put a small amount or at least wait until it's dry for people who are getting their fabrics dyed.

Pros:

FLATTENS PIMPLES, DRYS THEM OUT!

Cons:

ITCHES WHEN APPLIED AND WHEN WASHED OFF FACE ALSO ITCHES, STILL GET BRAKOUTS, SKIN FEELS DRY AND LOOKS DRY.

AFTER JUST ONE NIGHT OF USING THIS PRODUCT ABOUT 3 PEOPLE THOUGHT THAT MY SKIN LOOKED BETTER. I DON'T KNOW IF THIS PRODUCT WAS THE REASON BECAUSE I GOT ABOUT 8 SHOTS OF COTIZONE IN THE FACE, SO IT MITE B THE CLINDOXYL OR IT COULD BE THE COTIZONE BUT MY FACE HAS SHOWN LITTLE INPROVEMENT BUT STILL HAS A LONG WAY TO GO

Pros:

Cleared up 99.9% of acne pimples within 5-10 days.

Cons:

Skin is a bit dry and sensitive in the morning after washing it off.

I have tried hundreds of prescribed and retail products over the years and nothing has worked this well, this fast. I don't have one single blackhead on my nose, I've never seen my skin this clear before. I have my face back!!

Pros:

skins seems to be clearing up, skin is not drying out.

Cons:

not entirely clear yet

well it's true that i do have days where i forget to use it but i feel like it should be doing more to clear up my skin. if anything it seems like it's bringing up the acne that's under the skin and i seem to have been breaking out more. since it's the summer my skin hasn't dried out yet, but in the winter i know it will flake. also it seems i've been getting a great deal on it considering all of the prices i've seen listed. I have a university health insurance plan and a supplemental so its very cheap.

Pros:

I found that it worked realitivly fast!!!
It did not dry my skin...I only put it in the areas that I was prone to break out, not all over my face. No need to waste a good thing.

Cons:

Haven't found one.

You do have to use it on a reg basis, because that's how medication works. I would only recommended it to a person that has a slight problem with acne...

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:

- cleared acne
- prevents new breakouts (when i do get them it's usually small)

Cons:

- when you first use it, your face becomes extremely dry and red, it was also very itchy and irritating
- burning sensation when you first use it

Overall, this product is pretty good after your skin gets used to the BP. I've been noticing really good results after using it, hopefully it will become better! Been using for 3 weeks.
