I know it's so cliche to say, "I've tried everything" when it comes to treating acne, but I've really tried everything! I have struggled with mild to moderate acne since junior high and have always had a major problem with blackheads. I am now 26 years old and things haven't gotten much better. I have used prescription products from my dermatologist like Accutane and Tazorac, I've used TV products like Proactiv and probably just about everything on the drugstore shelves. I have an oily t-zone and some dry patches and have struggled with acne on an on-going basis. As horrible as it sounds, I'm guily of picking at my skin which leaves me with red marks and scars. After several trips to the derm for a more permanent solution, she finally advised me to get back to basics. She recommended I use a very gentle frangrance-free cleanser, moisterizer with SPF and a spot treatment. I picked up this product on a whim while grocery shopping and have been amazed by the results. I immediately noticed a difference in my skin texture after using it for only a few days. Over the course of 3 weeks, I noticed significant lightening of my red scars and improved texture on the blackheads along my jawline. I still get small zits here and there, but they are small and seem to disappear quickly. I'm very, very pleased with my results!

I bought this creme after reading the glowing reviews on how much it cleared up acne and reduced the acne scars. I admit, I was so excited about this product that I did not research the product as much as I should have.

Essentially, it works well enough. It has salicylic acid, so it will help clear up your face a bit if you haven't been using it till you try this product. It also has some nice anti-scar ingredients that will help reduce red spots.

BUT, for people that intend to use this as more than a spot treatment on a daily basis, don't waste your time. The container is too small for that, and honestly the product isn't really worth buying in large amounts. Just use Vitamin E oil for the scars, and if you want a nice salicylic acid moisturizer try Clean&Clear's Advantage moisturizer. Both work just as well, and save you a ton of money.

TIP: For adult acne sufferers like myself that are desperately looking for a solution, try researching Omega-3 and Vitamin D and see if it might be a cure for you. I've been having a lot of luck, and was able to swear off salicylic acid and benzoil peroxide for good :) Expect lots of skin purging, though...

      Comments about Sudden Change Scar Zone A, Acne Treatment + Acne Scar Diminishing Cream, .5 oz:

      I think this works best as a preventative acne product. I usually get large, red, sore, under the skin pimples on my chin. Since using this I've only had a few small white heads. I apply it to my problem areas once a day after washing my face. For me this product hasn't had any effect on pimples that are already present, but when I do get them I dab the area with a cotton swab dipped in a tea tree oil/water mixture and it usually is dried up in one or two days. I have only been using this for a few weeks so I can not say for sure if it will diminish any of my acne scars. For now they are just as red/brown as they ever were, but since I haven't gotten any new under the skin blemishes I havent gained any new scars either.

          I had been using the product for 2 weeks. My acne scars are improving notoriously. I have had no new breakouts since using this cream, which is kind of weird because I always have pimples in my face. I love this product!

            Honestly, for the price of this product I didn't know if it would work or not. I have a nasty, awful habit of picking at my acne so I have a lot of scars on my face from the picking. This product is not only affordable, but it worked wonders on my skin. I have sensitive, oily, and acne prone skin. After a week or so of using the product regularly, I saw amazing results. Not only were my acne scars disappearing, but the redness in my skin was gone... and actual pimples were gone! I couldn't believe it. Just give this product a shot. If it doesn't work, at least you can say you tried.

              Comments about Sudden Change Scar Zone A, Acne Treatment + Acne Scar Diminishing Cream, .5 oz:

              Apply on clean skin primarily. But the gel also disappears and treats acne (diminishes redness and flattens inflammation) if dabbed carefully over makeup in the case of a sudden breakout during the day. The gently rounded applicator tip allows application without getting it on fingertips. It also allows for easy cleaning with an alcohol swab, for example, to keep the product tip sterile for re-use. Great for teenagers to use too, because it's easy and discreet. It does not smell or damage cloth and barely shows on skin while it's quickly working to clear acne.

              Speedy delivery and great prices on the wide range of products offered.

                  This cream is amazing. I hate the gel type since they get oily and icky. However, this cream is like a very soothing lotion perfect for my skin. All my break outs cleared out and not only that, my skin is so soft and clear. I love this product. The best purchase I made so far. I have very sensitive skin so I'm very limited to what to use on my face. However, this product is AMAZINGGGGGGG! I'm ordering more before I run out.

                    I have spent thousands of dollars on big brand acne items, including the dermatologist. This is by far the BEST acne med I have EVER used. I use it morning and night. It gets to the blemish before it really has a chance to start. I get cystic pimples and tiny white heads or should I say I use to....around 6 dollars a tube. I can't recommend this product enough....FANTASTIC.

                      I use this before bed after my toner. I love that it doesnt smell or dry out my skin. I put it on and let my skin absorb it for 5-10 minutes before i wear my night lotion. I have been using it for two weeks and I can see a significant change in my skin; my acne scars and fading and my skin texture is becoming more smooth. I use a combination of products and this seems to complement them in stopping breakouts and drying out existing acne. I also like the fact that you can apply it directly from the tube without having to your ur fingers; it saves on the product and you dont need to wash your hands before wearing the next layer of skin care product. I only wish it came in a bigger tube! absolutely love it.
