 4  Acne Acne comes back with a vengeance when you stop taking the medication. This product worked very well on reducing acne in the nose area. But it seems like over time the acne starts becoming resistant to the Klaron. However, the product is extremely effective against pimples when you first start taking it. M 30 6 months

 2  Adult Cystic Acne I used it for only three days; but in that time, there was no benefit whatsoever. In fact, I put it on a small pimple above my lip and it became a huge cyst by morning. I’ll keep it around, though, and perhaps try it again, because the soap and moisturizer used before and after play a big part in how well anything works. (I’m changing those now.) Glad my insurance covered it, unlike Differin! M 34 3 days

 5  adult acne slight itching on neck during the 1st week I am using Klaron with amoxycillin antibiotic. I have had adult acne for two years. I have tried everything else and this has worked the best for me. I have been using it for almost 2 weeks and I now only have one small zit on my chin. I use to get a lot of cystic acne. I now just have some red spots from past break outs. I have been using a facial brush and tea tree soap to wash my face also. The exfoliation helps speed up the slight peeling and fading of old acne marks. F 26 2 weeks

 3  Rosacea none I have been applying it twice a day for 4 months. During this time, it definitely got rid of my adult acne and outbreaks but redness still persists. I also keep getting the feeling of itchiness (like a sunburn) and stiffness. F 32 4 months

 4  Allergies and acne On my neck, there is a slight burning sensation, I have found that putting aloe vera on before applying medications reduces or elimintes the irration. Was using Retin A Micro and it really broke my skin out. I have been using Klaron for a few weeks on and my skin is almost back to its' pre-acne conditon. I love it. The only problem is shine that occurs while wearing during the day. M 33 4 weeks

 5  acne none This doesn't sting, smell, stain, bleach, nothing. But it definitely works. I use it twice a day, with Retin-A Micro 0.04% at night and I haven't had a zit in months. I love this stuff. And you only need a drop so the massive bottle has lasted me over 8 months so far. (If I use any more than a drop I get a little greasy during the day) F 27 8 months

 5  acne none The lotion is easy to apply and does not sting; after two weeks I noticed a significant improvement with acne that has been bad for years. I have very sensitive skin and had no problems. The only downside is that the lotion leaves a little shine on your skin - put some gentle moisturizer on and you'd get the same result. F 26 20 days

 5  acne Definately keep this lotion away from your nose and eyes. I've experienced wheezing a few times when it got close to /in my nose. LOVE this stuff! I have not been able to use anythin else without excessive dryness, rashes, bumps or breaking out once I stop. I found that I have been able to reduce usage now that my skin has cleared up and it works for cysts!!! 2 days, a dab of Klaron et voila! I'm so glad I haven't had to take antibiotics. F 38 3 months

 5  acne none As I was using the Klaron one of my blackheads turned into a painful pimple but as I continued with the klaron it cleared up in only two days, where on other products it would have taken at least a week or two! I love this stuff and I've only been on it for a week!!! F 17 1 weeks

 5  Acne-ver dry skin NO side Effects!!!! I love this stuff. Started using it about a month ago after spending hundreds of dollars on other products (Accutane, Benzamycin Pak [try keeping a lover with that disgusting stuff on your face every night]). Finally a wonderful dermatologist has freed me from my 30 plus year old struggle with acne. Try this one right away, you will be pleasantly pleased. F 42 30 days

I was having breakouts, but also had extremely dry skin when ever i tried to treat the breakouts! This stuff is a miracle.
