Freederm : Gel

Wasted my £10.00! It may work for you , but I wouldn't really recommend it to anyone.

Avoid. Although works for some, it may be considered a risk to use these products and is expensive. Following the regimen, with Simple products was far more effective for me.

People who criticise this say it doesn't clear their acne. IT IS NOT MEANT TO CLEAR ACNE, this is simply an anti-inflammatory which helps reduce the appearance of acne. If you suffer mild acne its worth the money. The product did do exactly what it says it will do on the packaging for me - reduce inflammation. The fact that its medically tested helps as well. On the bottom of the box you will see PL 0173/0166. The PL stands for product licence and means that the product has been proven to work under medical examination. Many treatments such as Clearasil rapid action treatment cream do not have a PL, hence the products claims are dubious. I do still get spots, but freederm means they disappear within 1-2 days and the size of them is significantly reduced. Because I want to prevent the spots coming up in the first place I'm going to test out the old BP 2.5% for a while and see how it compares. But overall I would recommend you try it. For around £7-8 its worth a punt.

Another dud treatment that is as effective as voodoo magic.

Maybe I'm having a bad reaction, but I'm inclined to continue using it, as others have warned about "initial breakouts" when using the product. I've had severe acne throughout my entire adolescent life, and I'm now 22 and looking for something to put a stop to this social hinderance that burdens me every day of my life. I'm a guy, so I can't just cover up the problem with make-up, so this "purity process" is going to be difficult to handle. I'm going to stick with it, and I'll post again in a few weeks with my evaluation of the product.

I've used this product on and off for about a year and it does work when used as a combination treatment. At present I am taking 300mg of Trimethopim (Morning and night) and using Clean & Clear facial wash and Aderma moisturiser in the morning. On the evening I used Clean & Clear facial wash with a thin layer of Suedocrem (I mean THIN, like a small pea sized dot on both cheeks and forehead is enough) and then a layer of Nicam gel on the most affected areas - DO NOT APPLY ALL OVER THE FACE OR AFFECTED AREA BECAUSE YOU WILL REGRET IT! You may find you break out alot more in the first few weeks but this is because all the impurities in your skin are being drawn out and it won't matter what treatment you use if it is working you will break out intially in the first 2 weeks, if it progressively gets worse then obviously stop treatment but give it at least 6 weeks. Also if you have severe acne scarring then I suggest buying a Aderma Zinc cream which soothes and calms infected areas.

i think that its a really good product ive been using it for a few days and it has got rid of the swelling but not my scars theyre not actually spots ther jus the faded ones w hich have jus left a mark and people think its spots I BOUGHT IT FROM A CHEMIST 4 £7.99.

I have only recently had acne, Im 17 and all my life I have only ever had the odd spot, so you can imagine how upset I became when my skin came out with acne, I have becom so insecure about it. My chemist suggested using Freederm gel, I have been using it twice a day for about a week and have seen now difference and as I said it even made it worse. I do not recommend this product as its about £7 and a rip off! especially if you have sensitive skin.

I have been on Roaccutane twice and as excellent as it was, being a female the spots returned but with a month of using freederm, they cleared up. If I don't use it for a week, they start to reappear and then within a few days, the spots are gone. It feels good on the skin. I now use it along with the wash and for the first time in years, my skin feels smooth. I have tried every cream, lotion and pills possible and my skin has been through every phase from greasy to dry from combination to sensitive and only using Freederm on a continuous basis has my skin cleared up. You have to give it a month but even after a week, you see results.

I have been using this cream for about three months. I am 28 and have had acne since being a teenager. In the last year or so it had got much worse, so that I was scared of leaving the house. I started using Freederm three months ago and decided to give it some time to work. At first, it encouraged small whiteheads but these were hardly noticeable and in no way as bad as the acne itself. Now, three months later, and I can leave the house without any makeup at all! It is incredible! I still have a couple of spots, but they are small, dry and a much closer colour to my skin tone. I have tried a huge range of prescription and non-prescription treatments over the years. This is the first and only one to have worked! It's amazing! There is a mild fragrance but it is not as bad as most prescription creams I have used. It causes a little drying, but you can use moisturiser alongside. You can also wear makeup with it.
