Works pretty well
For half a year now I've had painful hormonal breakouts on my chin which is strange since I'm not the type to get acne... So I went ahead and got my birth control switched to something that eliminates hormonal acne but it takes 3-4 months to kick in.. I'm currently starting my 3 months now. I needed something to tone down my acne on my chin because I am truly embarrassed by it so I went online and saw the zeno hot spot... Not impressed that it has 80 uses (4 stars) but I do find it worked!!! When I got this I had around 8 pimples on my chin.. Huge ones.. 3 cysts. I bought this about 4 days ago and It eliminated 4 pimples which weren't going away and I'm left with one smaller one and 3 small cysts (which are almost gone) I also combine this with clean and clear persagel 5 I use it as a spot treatment before bed. Been using the zeno three times a day and it definitely has made a big difference!!

Cons:
only 80 uses
not practical for severe acne
pricey
For a couple of days I've had a gigantic pimple on the tip of my nose. After purchasing this product, i used the zeno once or twice every three hours and the bump went down a little but not alot. The next morning I iced the pimple and used the zeno twice and the bump was noticably fltter. Usually it takes 2-3 weeks for these kiinds of piimples to heal for me, but with the zeno, the pimple should be gone in a day or two.

Pros:
Easy
Painless
Effective
Cons:
Disposable
Works really well on dermatitis, reducing length of break-out by 75%, with results visible within 24 hours. After first use "growth" (for lack of a better word) is arrested; reduction apparent the next day. When used soon enough spots are gone the next day. Does leave a mild red area where used, but this fades quickly. As with anything, use in moderation.

Pros:
Estimate that 75% of the pimples I've treated have gone down significantly or been eliminated within 1-3 treatments.
It's cheaper and more convenient than getting a cortisone shot. Not as perfectly effective, but pretty darn good.
Cons:
Can't be sure, but I think the temperature of the tip isn't consistent.
Sometimes I have to press hard on the activating button to get it to work.
Not environmentally friendly (uses batteries, is disposable).
Effects aren't 'instant', but it dramatically shortens the life span of my pimples.
Including the hormonal acne I get on my jawline. Pimples that I know would otherwise hang around for 6 months to a year are gone or reduced within a few days. I've even used it on ones that would turn into cystic acne (against the instructions - only supposed to be used on *pimples*, nothing else). With reasonable success. Have also used it on whiteheads - manufacturer advises NOT doing this. In my experience it's drawn out the stuff and made it easier to pop. ***People who scar should NOT try this. Have repurchased. Next time will try to get a plug-in version.

Pros:
helps get rid of inflamed red pimples
Cons:
does not get rid of any kind of pimple with pus (i.e. whitehead, blackhead, pustule).
leaves red circle after use so can not use in the AM if in a rush to get to work (or during the day if you work and are concerned about walking around with red marks)
I bought the original Zeno in 2006 and basically stashed it away in my junk pile after the first few uses. It did absolutely nothing for me. Yesterday, while shopping in Target I saw this and thought I'd give it a shot...I figured it's been four years since the original came out and they must have made improvements since! I cleaned my face before bed and tested it on 2 stubborn pimples. This AM one is completely gone and the other is visibly smaller. I'm completely satisfied and I will most likely buy it again when it runs out. I'm so happy that I am now looking into buying the Zeno Heat Treat.

Pros:
-Works!
-Shrinks pimples
-Easy to use
Cons:
-Costs about 50 cents per pimple
-Doesn't completely get rid of every pimple
Just got this product. It really does get rid of those individual pimples, or at least makes them disappear faster than they normally would. But I am asking myself how much I want to spend, and I am leaving the small pimples because they don't seem to be worth the money. However, I have mostly large whiteheads and it won't work for them. It also doesn't work on those really large difficult pimples.

Pros:
-Cleared acne quick!
-Feels good
Cons:
-Doesn't work that well around acne clusters
-Leaves skin red
-Battery dies quickly.
I got this product today, and used it immediately. I was out tonight, and when I was washing my face before bed, I saw that the pimples I had treated earlier were already reduced in size by about 50%. I read on the zeno website to treat zits about 3 times a day, if it's a persistent zit. Sadly, I couldn't do this because the battery died on me. Before you buy this, stock up on your doubles As!

Pros:
-Small & Portable
-2 1/2 minute treatments
-Battery opperated
-FDA-Approved
-Can be used every 4 hours & with your daily skincare regimen
-Personally, I had visibly smaller blemishes within the first hour.
Cons:
-Leaves small red circle for 30 minutes to an hour (concealable with make-up)
-Can cause skin to peel because of heat
-Unlike the Zeno Mini with replacement tips, the Hot Spot provides only 80 treatments, then must be thrown away as you would normal trash
-Does not work on subclinical (few black/whiteheads), comedonal (inflammmed black/whiteheads), nodular (solid masses under skin) or cystic acne
Works best on individaul and occasional acne blemishes. Sells for $40. Results probably vary due to your skin, type of acne, and your skincare regimen.
Pros:
batteries included
easy to use
actually works
can flatten a big pimple by alot
