Acne.org : Treatment (Benzoyl Peroxide - 2.5%)

So I have been struggling with mild acne for over three years now. I should consider myself lucky/blessed to only be mild acne there is much worse out there, but having it constantly and waking up everyday with two or more new pimples really can begin to take digs at your self-confidence and self-esteem - which I now have none. I have tried a quite a few over the counter remedies, home remedies, pill and even acne tablets but NOTHING has worked! I had come across acne.org before but was skeptical about buying online - about three-four weeks ago I caved in and ordered, I was desperate! So far, I can report that I am still waking up every day with new pimples.. my scarring /marks are deeper and darker then what they were prior to this treatment (once again effecting my self-esteem), and my face is still EXTREMELY DRY. I always wear make-up when I am out and about, and even then my confidence is non-existent because by the end of the day it is gross, dry and crinkly - but still its better in my mind's eye then walking around with my acne on full display. My acne affects my social life as well.. I've made excuses to cancel events because of my skin - it ruins my life. I will still with this treatement... I might order another 80z... but if I don't see any more improvements I will give it a toss. I am hopeful that soon it will help my skin but as for now I still suffer. Hope this helps.

Tried this a few times because I got a free travel kit with my AHA purchase. This treatment feels very grainy compared to my Proactive + treatment. The Proactive + BP treatment is very smooth. With that said, I'm not knocking the effectiveness of this product. I'm sure it works just fine, but I can't switch from something that goes on smooth to something that feels like I'm rubbing liquid sand on my face.

So after giving The Regimen a fair 3 month trial I can honestly say it did not work for me. At first it seemed like it did, then of course there was the bad breakout.. Ever since then I've been waiting for it to get better.. It hasn't. It went from my cheeks and chin, to my forehead and neck. I've gotten more cystic acne while on the regimen then ever before. It's super painful and I was so bummed to find out this is just another product on my list of stuff that just didn't work..

The main downside of this gel to me, was scars after every single pimple. I DID NOT used to get any scars before. Now that I've stopped using it for about a year,I wont get those shallow scars anymore and it took a year for them to go away. Another problem was the hyper-pigmentation, for some reason they were more resistant than usual while on Dan's BP. To prove this to myself I applied the gel a couple of times to my chest acne. Yep, the H-pigmentation left behind was darker and more resistant than usual. Unfortunately I had to stop using this gel after getting a good control over my acne. I wish I could continue using it. I just thought I share my experience with every one, specially with those who think they are at the early stages of experiencing scars and are worried about the marks on their face, so the good news is you wont need any laser treatment or anything, they both will fade over time after you stop using BP gel...but if you're not worried about scars ...then carry on, because it the best stuff to control acne

I have more sensitive skin but I thought it would still be okay since some people with sensitive skin were able to use 10% b.p. with some success. I wanted to be on the safe side and only bought the 2 oz just to try it out. The first few days were fine, no burning as I gradually increased the dosage of the b.p. for my face. However when I got up to 2/3 of my finger, my face started to burn so bad. I washed it off immediately, but it still didn't feel much better. It was only after I rubbed some aloe on that I felt better. This product wasn't for me. I would recommend for someone who isn't sensitive to benzoyl peroxide

I really wanted to like this product unfortunately it gave me huge cystic acne. After about 3 weeks of using this product I started to break out so badly on my cheeks and it got progressively worse. Now I'm left with pitted scars =/

This product will get rid of acne, but be warned, I've had acne for years and never has such a problem with hyperpigmentation and I've never had pitted scars. After a month of using the regimen religiously, I saw what was happening to my skin and had to quit. I didn't even think I was prone to pitted scars, but this product dried and thinned out my skin and caused them.

I know most of you here have got good results from BP but I have to say it gave me hives. I had to go to a doctor and get an anti allergy.
