Pros:

Kept my face clear and smooth all through high school
Not too harsh

Cons:

Dries out skin, use moisturizer
Stops working after a while

I used this on my face every night during my high school years, and it kept my skin beautiful and spotless. However after years of using it, it just kinda stopped working. I guess my skin got used to it. But it helped a ton in high school so I give it 5/5 hands down.

Pros:

Cleans acne

Cons:

If used to much can dry out skin to much.

Kso, this product WILL clean you're acne, some people have said it has made my face worse.. well it's gutta get worse before it can get better. so KEEP USING IT, and use it as a spot treatment to, i have tried proactive, ALL the mainstream acne solvents. And if you have used this for a month and there is still acne, move up to the persa-gel 10, The one thing is, is that when i first got it i was so excited i put the thing on 5 times a day,, no no... face looked like a cracker, Use it once a day before you go to sleep, don't need to rinse you're face or anything, just enough to cover you're face, you're face will reel really tight, try not to streach you're face becuase when you leave it tight, it dosent let anything else in you;re pores, so over all EXCELLENT product, and a 100% buy.

Pros:

Doesn't dry out skin
Works quickly
Is not expensive
Gets rid of blackheads and whiteheads

Cons:

Zero!!

I swear by this product! I have tried many expensive acne products in my desperate search to get rid of my acne which is kind of different because my pimples rarely pop out, but are rather bumpy and noticible on my skin. This product made it, it's better than the 10% because it doesn't dry your skin and you notice result almost immediatly. Also is some much more cheaper than neotrogena, proactive, etc and it work better.

Pros:

I USED PERSA GEL 5

- completely cleared acne
- easy to put on
- clear when put on
- works well with moisturizer
- great "spot on" acne treatment

Cons:

Too good to be true

Bottom Line? THIS PRODUCT STOPPED MY ACNE I used to get pimples regularly on my face, chin and sides of my nose. I decided to use the regimen, and bought some products (Persa Gel 5, Neutrogena cleanser and moisturizer below). At first I put it all over my face - and since I have sensitive skin this dried out and caused redness on my cheeks. I put it on my problem areas only after: forehad, nose area, and chin and it was fine. Over the weeks, i started to get less and less pimples and my skin is completely clear now (except for some scarring left behind). This is also a great "spot on" acne treatment. I once had a pimple that I could feel coming on my forehead, I put a blob of the Persa Gel on it over night, and when I woke up the pimple was gone. It literally works so well - no exaggeration. This is a great product as I feel the 2.5% would be too light, and 10% is too harsh. This product is really amazing, and I recommend it to everyone. My skin is not dried out (and I even only put moisturizer in the morning not in the nights), not red, and it is smooth and pimple free. The moisturizer and cleanser really compliment the Persa Gel because they are light, not harsh, and don't clog up my pores or cause oily skin. 5 STARS!!!!!!! MOISTURIZER: [link removed]
