Will it get rid of cystic acne and nodules?

I would say no on the nodules. I don't know about acne. I have roseaca and it doesn't help that.

I've not experienced it gettind rid of the acne butit does help stop it from getting started

I don't think so,your best bet is to go to web md type in cystic acne and see what it suggest

I think this is primarily to treat the acne you have. I don't think it will lessen future breakouts.

I felt this was way too strong. I've had greater success with the 20%. You may want to check with the manufacturer for specific application guidelines. It really is best for spot treatment only (esp. acne cysts).

Yes. It helps bring the deep acne scars and breakouts to the surface so though it looks like u have more breakouts, once they're gone your skin will have a smoother texture. I use African black soap as a cleanser with it and it has gotten rid of the bumps in my acne scars. And if you use it everyday you won't get new breakouts. Just put some lotion afterwards if it makes your skin too dry

Probably not. It cleans well but I doubt it would help acne. Just my opinion.

if it gets rid of MRSA, it's going to work on acne - both are bacterial in nature

I rather doubt it! If you try to use it be sure to dilute it greatly! Start with about a 30 to 40 % and work up from there. I used it full strength on my knees and it burned and itched badly, after which all the skin peeled. I to have been diagnosed with acne. What worked most profoundly for me was the 4 or 5 regiment of Proactive. After just a month or so the acne completely cleared up! I have seen it do fantastic things on several others.

I suppose it would depend on the severity of your acne. I had moderate acne and it took about 2- 3 weeks for it to clear up. It takes longer to get rid of the hyperpigmentation (dark marks) that the acne left behind though, if you just use this product alone

Yes, definitely (I just double-checked). Here's the thing though: You have to use it *Every Day*. If you do you will be Amazed at how AWESOME, how Smooth, how Clear Your Skin Looks! However, if you slack off (use less than 4 to 7 times a week) It'll flare up again. Guaranteed. [btw: you need only Cleanse once daily using a mild, o.t.c., good facial cleanser) (Slough skin once per week with a (gentje version) Buf-Puf and your o.t.c. cleanser) and apply a Thin Layer of Effaclar Duo all over your face. A little goes a long way and the price is absolutely worth it p.s. re: the "worth it" part --- this is coming from a single mom of teenage triplets so you know I'm careful w/ how I spend money!

Acne might get worse. I would not suggest using when you have acne. Start it with a cleat acne free/ or less acne . It definitely works in renewing skin. I have used it and seen the results.

I have not used this product but I used Roc Deep Wrinkle moisturizer. These product are for line removals on the face, not sure it works for acne.

This will help clear up complexion if your acne or eczema is flaring up. My teenager uses this on days she doesn't have time for Clarisonic

Don't think so I have some light brown spots on my upper checks that I have for many years it didn't really go away, but I think it got a little lighter. It did clear my acne marks and help even my skin tone. I used to have hyper pigmentation from the acne now my skin is more even tone. I use it once a week.

No. It's irritating to the skin and causes breakouts where their were none before. I would not recommend this product.

Sulfur helps the skin shed quicker, thus unclogging the pore and healing the acne. Sulfur also has some antimicrobial qualities that can kill the acne-causing bacteria.

No, I'm sorry to say its effectiveness diminishes with pimples that are under the skin such as cystic or blind pimples. It is most effective with blackheads and whiteheads and red acne that has broken through the skin. The light does not reach far under skin layers but can reduce bacteria lying on the skin's surface.So, wait until it breaks through, as the Tanda light will help then and at least it won't get worse from the surface bacteria.Some people say the heat and vibration help with cystic acne, but really it won't make as big a difference as with other breakouts in my opinion and that is what the accompanying instructions outline also.
