Summary: IT WORKED FOR ME
Review: I am so grateful for this book and wake up everday relieved when I look in the mirror. I've visited multiple dermatolists, tried Proactiv, minocyclin antibiotics, vitamins, prescription stuff - many types and nothing has worked. Proactiv did not work despite the info-mercials. I tried each remedy at different times in my life. As I've gotten older into my mid-twenties, the acne has gotten worse. I just about given up when I came across this book and read the reviews and thought, why not? I tried everything else under the sun. And the excerpts from the book was logical and made sense.
The results for me are amazing. My skin is smooth and my scars are disappearing. I don't expect it to completely cure - due to hormonal occurances or stress. However, it has certainly improved my skin 95% and I'm not embarrassed when I don't have foundation on. I've been using this process for 4 weeks now and have recommended it to my sister and friends. The other reviews show that people don't know what brands to use or where to find the items. Here is exactly what I used:
2.5% Benzoyl Peroxide - On the Spot, Neutrogena. Available at Target, Walmart, any pharmacy... about $5
2% Salicylic Wash - Oil Free Acne Wash, Neutrogena. Available at Target, Walmart, any pharmacy... about $5
Glycolic Acid - 7% Glycolic Exfoliating Wash, DDF. Available from Sephora. Can also be ordered online from Sephora. $27 Hope this helps you as it did me! Best of Luck.

Summary: Hope For Acne Sufferers At Last!
Review: I have a fourteen year old son, deep in the throes of acne. I suffered myself as a teen and still have flare-ups, so I know how devastating this condition can be. The last program he tried was ProActive, which seemed to work for a few weeks and then...didn't. He stuck with the program though for six months, to give it time to do its best. Well, my son's face just got worse. I made an appointment with a dermatologist. One day while browsing in a bookstore, I saw The Acne Cure. I was very skeptical and flipped through the book. What I saw did not look promising...I mean, who hasn't used benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid? As I looked further into the daily routine, I saw information which was presented in a different way than ever before. The doctor was suggesting using these products in a specific order along with glycolic acid and cold! I was intrigued and bought the book. I must say, we saw improvement after about 5 days. My son's face after two weeks is remarkably better than before he started the program and after the six weeks, I expect him to have clear skin! My son wasn't even following the program to the letter, but he was definitely seeing results. He is now more interested in following the doctor's specific instructions. I think any acne sufferer will be very pleased with the results achieved from following this program. The best part is you may already have the products in the specific concentrations recommended by Dr. Dubrow at home...we did. This makes it very economical. We have cancelled the appointment with the dermatologist. Do yourself or your loved one a huge favor and give this a try!

Summary: Believe the hype!
Review: I read some of these reviews before throwing caution to the wind and ordering the book anyway. I'm 35, and have been suffering from embarrassing bouts of acne for more than twenty years. I was doubtful, but despite being let down by endless diets, soaps, and medicines through the years, I still held a hope that somebody might have figured this problem out. Dr Dubrow has got the goods. For my first week on this program, my skin got as bad as it ever had, though in a slightly different way, and just in places where I'd had breakouts before (as if, even though seemingly healed, my skin still had to get rid of some old yuck under the surface). After that, though, everything cleared up once and for all. I can barely believe it! The book outlines a six-week program, but my acne was completely gone within three weeks. For the first time since childhood, I went through the holidays able to eat anything I wanted without any fear of repercussions to my skin. I can't say what a difference it's made to my self-confidence, knowing that people are seeing me, and not my skin condition. If you've wrestled with acne, I heartily recommend that you read this book and follow the program outlined in it.

Summary: Wow, this really works!
Review: I've had acne for more than 10 years and I've done so many things to try to cure it that it is incredible. I did the Accutane, antibiotics, very strong peels that left my skin destroyed for days, birth control. I was resigned to having acne be a part of my life. A few weeks ago my skin revolted again and I was so incredibly upset that I was willing to go for another Accutane treatment even though I know very well that this medication has so many side effects and is so unhealthy. By chance I saw this book in a bookstore, even though at the time I didn't think there was an acne cure. After doing the program just a few days my skin Feels healthy! I have had this feeling only when on medication! And the program is so simple yet effective! The idea to dilute the acids with a few drops of water is very smart, this way you can cover your whole face not just the problem areas and you can prevent new pimples from showing up. Try this program, it is really worth it! So, thanks Dr. Dubrow, I appreciate it! I wish I had this information when I was a teenager! PS: A week ago a doctor told me the old "Don't eat chocolate" story. I am so glad that Dr. Dubrow dispels this myth because chocolate is the only thing that I truly love to eat!

Summary: Not great methods
Review: The best book for Acne that one should get is "Clear Skin" by Dan Kern. That will clear up your face using simple techniques. it has been working for me, and it will work for you. Don't bother with expensive proactiv, just try the methods in "Clear Skin" and you will save a lot of money. Thanks again to Dan, for his methods. I hope that more people know about this

Summary: Thank You, Thank You.....
Review: This book saved my face. I've been suffering from acne breakouts since my late teens, and now in my mid twenties I faced the problem of both wrinkles and pimples! I had spent hundred's of $$$ on acne meds. and what nots, and feeling a bit sceptical I purchased Dr. Dubrow's book. Thank God! It has been two months now since I started on the cure, and although the night treatment was a pain at first, seeing the almost inmediate results was well worth the hassle. I can recommend this book to anyone who suffers from acne, young or old/er, my skin is now clear, soft, and acne is no longer a problem. And thanks to the follow up regimen suggested, the tiny wrinkles I had near my mouth are almost invisible.
