Pros:

This is the only thing that has worked for my hormonal acne.

Cons:

Extremely dry and flaky skin for the first month. Lots of peeling and redness. Sensitivity to the sun. DO NOT USE EXFODERM FORTE. IT CAUSED MY SKIN TO BREAK OUT MORE. I use all the products except Exfoderm.

This is the only program that has worked for my hormonal acne. I had beautiful clear skin all my life until I hit the age 22. I started getting cystic acne in my cheeks and my jawline as well as the side of the face right next to my eyes. I have tried EVERYTHING. Spent thousands of dollars for several years. Nothing cleared up my skin like Obagi Nu-Derm. However, you really have to stick with the program because for the first month your skin will get extremely worse. It's very uncomfortable as it causes excessive peeling and dryness. The acne gets even worse and you break out everywhere. But if you stick it through, you will start seeing results after one month. I stopped using Obagi Nu Derm after a 3 month program and had clear skin for another 1 year with maintenance. When I stopped using the products, I started breaking out severely again. Now I am back on the program along with Spironolactone and YAZ. Am starting to see results again.

Pros:

dries up acne thats under the skin very well.

Cons:

makes face very flakey, step 3 was VERY painful for me, and makes face very red.

Ive been battling with severe cycstic acne around my mouth area for about 6 months now, and this is the first thing ive used that keeps it dry. I took it for about 4 days straight, and then didnt take it for 2 days, and my skin stayed very dry. After my inital acne cleared I started taking it every 3 days, and it has been working great.

Pros:

It was fun to get the stuff in the mail.

Cons:

It caused .25" layers of skin to peal off at a time, especially around my nose and mouth. It didn't do a thing for my acne...may have made it worse. Didn't help my melasma either.

Not good for people with acne.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Caused my face to break-out even worse; very expensive.

I used the clenziderm system. This is simply a horrible product. I went from having mild acne to having severe acne, and had the opportunity to get to know my dermatologist much better in order to fix all the damage caused by this product.

Pros:

- works in the short term

Cons:

- once my skin cleared and i stopped using benzol peroxide my skin broke out.
- stopped working in the winter when the air got dry.
- dehydrates the skin
-contains parabens and lots of other scary ingredients

If you need a quick fix then it will clear skin for a few months but it's not a long term solution.

Pros:

The BP serum Is a good spot treatment.

Cons:

Dried out my skin HORRIBLY!!! Did not prevent new breakouts! Over priced!

I went to a med spa where they gave me the clenziderm system because I had a bad breakout on my face at the time (from previous products they sold me) and within the first 3-4 days it did clear my breakouts and I thought I struck gold! However, that was short lived, because my face was clear for about a week and then I started having new breakouts and then my face got so dry, flaky and umcomfortable from using the products it was aweful! My skin would be so dry and tight after washing my face at night I couldn't move my face. When I spoke to the lady she told me to continue using it that my skin would get use to it,lol, what a JOKE, it only got worse! So, I discontinued the product and made an appt. with the Dermatologist. Its been over a mth now since I've used it and my skin is still not back to normal. This product was just way to much for my skin! The only good thing is I use the BP serum (just a little) as a spot treatment and that seems to be ok, as long as I don't use a lot.
