Pros:

easy toapply, not sticky, disappears within seconds

Cons:

small white heads appearing!! arggghhh!!

i have been using this for only about a week so am going to give it a good shot as i have, just as everyone else tried pretty much everything else. have suffered and suffered since the age of 13 i am now 28 which means 15 years of hiding behind a mask of makeup trying to make the best of it!! argghh, gets u down though eh? as i said its only a week since ive started using freederm but have noticed a LOT of tiny whiteheads appearing which i have NEVER suffer with, its usually the angry red, sore spots around my chin and jaw line. i am hoping however, being a glass half full kinda gal that these are purely an indication that this is a product which is actually doing something as opposed to the others which have been a waste of time and money! and wait with baited breath :) i will post back again in a few weeks........ fingers crossed :) x

Pros:

It worked well at reducing swelling, worked well when i had mild/moderate acne.

Cons:

It stopped working and i ended up with severe cystic acne, its very expensive, and it doesnt prevent.

If you are prone to mild acne or the odd spot, then it will work, but i dont recomend it, because you may end up getting sever cystic like me. Basically it was a big mistake to start using it.

Pros:

Non-irritating, helps to reduce inflammation.

Cons:

Sometimes leaves a white film.

I have moderate inflammatory acne, and am Asian. My biggest worry is not my acne itself, but rather the post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). A spot lasts a week, but the marks last a year! I am happy to say that Freederm helped to reduce the redness of my spots, and the PIH marks are less nitcable than what they would usually be. I wouldn't tout this as an acne cure, it didn't magically shrink spots, but it did help with the inflammation.

Pros:

Has a soothing effect on spots, no side effects, no bleaching or drying of skin

Cons:

Not particularly effective, a little expensive

I suffer with adult acne on my chin and jawline which started at the age of 25. My spots are mainly inflammed which Freederm is supposed to work on. I found that it did reduce the redness to some extent although only temporarily, they would become red again within a few hours. I think it may have cleared the spots up slightly quicker than normal although nothing worth getting too excited about. It doesn't prevent new ones from appearing either.

I have started to use freederm gel and i find it quite similar to benzoyl peroxide as it dries out your skin in the same red raw way which is not a good look, however, i find it does reduce some spots. I found that the best treatment for acne was dianet pill (made my skin flawless never got ne spots!) but it did make me gain weight over a long period of time so iv had to try out other treatments!
