Zeno Acne Clearing Device with 60-Count Cartridge

Rating (147 reviews):

Do your homework--it really works!
I have extensive experience in the medical field and have owned the Zeno Product for quite some time. After reading the reviews, I can no longer remain silent. This is a wonderful product that has NEVER claimed to be a substitute for good hygiene. It is a very effective product for when good hygiene fails (and, thanks to Mother Nature's ways, good hygiene will inevitably fail no matter what skin care regimen you have). I have never had a pimple that Zeno did not work on (including my hormonal and cystic acne). And, I did my "homework" before buying this product, as I would also encourage you to do. It was very clear to me from the beginning what types of acne Zeno may not work on (it is CLEARLY specified in the owners manual that is published on the Zeno Website). I would personally rather conduct a 2.5 minute treatment on a blemish THAT I KNOW WORKS QUICKLY (immediately to 24 hours) than try some topical that contains the usual Benzoyl Peroxide, which irritates and dries out my skin... 5/5 Sunshine Mom "Sunshine Mom" (Newport Beach, CA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Zeno Acne Clearing Device with 60-Count Cartridge (Health and Beauty) I have extensive experience in the medical field and have owned the Zeno Product for quite some time.

It actually works!!
Okay, I'll admit I was very very skeptical.... but it works.....It really does! I am 33 years old and have moderate acne that is very difficult to treat. For about the past year or so, I had been using 2.5% Benzoyl peroxide twice a day, every day. For the first few months, the BP treatments cleared my skin quite dramatically but then I more or less became "immune" to its effects and lately it hadn't been working quite as well, not to mention the fact that I was very weary of rubbing something like that into my skin twice a day for the rest of my life! Ok, so I was ready to try something new and something that I felt like would be safe with minimal side-effects and that is when I started doing research on what is new out there in acne treatment and I ran across all the rave reviews on the Zeno. I thought about it for a while and then decided to take the plunge since it has a 30-day money back guarantee (what did I have to lose?) I was fully expecting to be sending it back after two... 5/5 Book Lover "I love to read" (United States) - See all my reviews This review is from: Zeno Acne Clearing Device with 60-Count Cartridge (Health and Beauty) Okay, I'll admit I was very very skeptical.... but it works.....It really does!

Worked for me
Yes, it's basically a recharable battery and a heating element. Yes, it is expensive. [..].I really wanted to rip on this thing and call it junk, but I have to admit IT WORKED. I've tried it about 5 times and it's helped tremendously. On a couple of occasions, it actually did work overnight! Amazing.So I'll gladly put up with the price tag because ultimately my social life is worth it. Plus, it's cheaper than going to the dermotologist (who in my experience, really can't do a damn thing.)

Beauty (Neutrogena)
Rating (25 reviews):

Almost too effective.
I tried this the other day, to get rid of the beginnings of a few unsightly zits. It's a fairly harsh scrub, more so than some of the microdermabrasion scrubs I've used, and has a strong chemical/grapefruit smell that my husband wrinkled his nose at. My skin tends towards being sensitive and somewhat dry, but there aren't any warnings on the package, so I went ahead and scrubbed. It got rid of the impending zits, but it also took care of the first couple of layers of skin. I used it twice, two days ago, and my skin is still peeling and dry. Clear, but peeling. Not quite the look I was going for, even if it is close to Halloween. Perhaps if your skin isn't dry and/or sensitive, this product will work great for you. As for me, I might try to use it as rust remover on some projects... 2/5 Plannerbabs (Texas) - See all my reviews I tried this the other day, to get rid of the beginnings of a few unsightly zits.

Awesome for Oily Skin
I actually found this product by stalking a perfect-skinned lady through the skin care aisle to see what she bought. So I bought it myself and it has been amazing! I've always been one to have tiny baby pimples all over my forehead and cheeks, and then those big underground ones on my chin and temples. I also have always had incredibly oily skin. This wash gets rid of the oil and tightens up my skin. After 2 weeks of use (twice daily) all the forhead pimples are gone and the underground chin pimples have come to the surface and relieved themselves and are clearing up. I know that sounds gross, but it's a dream come true for me. No new cyst type pimples have taken their place. My skin looks the clearest it has since as far back as I can remember. To be fair, I've been using an oil free "nighttime" mosturizer after each wash to replenish some moisture, so that may make a difference. Oh, and I don't find the smell to be overly strong either. I give this scrub five stars... 5/5 kfxLULU - See all my reviews I actually found this product by stalking a perfect-skinned lady through the skin care aisle to see what she bought.

Speed healing for at-home facials: portable High Frequency device for acne/pustules!
So far I've used 2 out of 3 electrode wands: the mushroom electrode for the face (not yet on my body, but I read something that it was good for cellulite) and also the point electrode for spot treatment on my face. My aesthetician always uses this on me at the end of the facial after all the peels and extractions to reduce the redness and also make acne/pimples/pustules and also inflammation/redness go away faster. Please note that this is better for pustules, not black heads. She was selling it for a comparable price, but at least there is no tax here. The electrode wands are easy to insert but it seems difficult the first time because the electrodes seem fragile (glass). The whole unit comes with a nice reusable black case with a protective area for the electrodes, as shown in the photo, but I wish I could store it without having to remove the electrode. However, that would probably have a higher chance of breaking the electrode. The cord is heavy duty thick, but it's still portable... 4/5 365BeautySecrets "365 Beauty Secrets" (Las Vegas, NV) - See all my reviews, April 14, 2009
Wonderful!
I have had facials for over 20 years and have ALWAYS insisted that they use their high frequency machine on me...because they work so amazingly at killing bacteria, and getting rid of bumps on my face. I was told about this machine, did my research, and have been using it now for about a month. I keep getting compliments on my face, which appears to just be more youthful looking, and smooth. And when I use it to "zap" any pimples that I get every now and then I wake up the next morning and it is GONE!I HIGHLY recommend this to ANYONE! I'm using it on my 13 year old daughter once a month, as well. It is EASY to use! I do wish it came with instructions! If you have never had this used on you, or are new to having facials, I recommend you talking to a professional first to completely understand how to use it. ENJOY!

Fast and Good
It is Thursday, July 8, and my order arrived today. The machine is as described. I opted for Argon rather than Neon in the electrodes, and that is exactly what I got. It works perfectly. All parts are in perfect condition. The storage case is rather nice to have as it protects the electrodes well. The order was placed on July 2. It is nice to have my own equipment that is of the same quality as the equipment I was trained with.I rate Palacia Skin Care 5 brightly glowing stars and will order supplies from them in the future.http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001UFUN7Y/ref=cm_cr_rev_prod_img 5/5 Vera E Morgan (SEATTLE, WA, US) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

Its a miricle.....
Thank you God for this. I am a african american woman who tends to get really severe boils under and around my large breasts and arms for the last 5 years. I go to the hospital like 5 times a year because they become so big. I just had to take a week off of work because I couldnt stand up straight and it would not come to a head so I had to go to the emergency room because I had a fever too. I HAVE BEEN TO MANY DOCTORS, DERMOTOLOGISTS, AND SPECIALISTS OVER THE YEARS and NONE have ever prescribed this product to me. I was presribed hibeclens which I use in the shower and countless antibiotics but they never help. The boils continue to reoccur. The doctors can not tell my why and I tested negative for MRSA or Staph infection. Anyway, this time I actually told a co-worker who badgered me until I told her what was wrong. She told me to pick up some prid and that I will not regret it. I went to Walmart and picked one up for less than $5.

Used in our family since my childhood
The Prid Salve has always been in our medicine cabinet as long as I can remember. I am now 70 years old. I can still remember my Father saying; all you need is some Prid Salve and some of the old white zink tape. You could heal any wound.When my brother and I was roughhousing in the yard I split open his upper lip. Dad washed out the wound, applied some Prid Salve and some of the white zink tape. It healed up and never left a scar.We would use it to draw out a sliver in our hand. Being on the farm one always had cuts, splinters and who knows what.I was so glad to see I was able to order the salve after trying several local drug stores.Thanks for stocking the Prid Salve, it is truly a miracle salve.Thank you. 5/5 W.

Prid Drawing Salve
I absolutely love this stuff. It is good for many different minor skin irritations such as cuts, scrapes, boils, blisters, hang nails, irritated cuticles, acne etc. I purchased this to quickly heal up acne and it really did the trick. It won't work to prevent acne or stop it from happening. It will bring the pimple to a head much faster and allow the wound to heal after it has been popped with minimal to no scarring. Sometimes, it even seems to dissolve the acne with no painful pinching, poking or popping! I've also used this on blackheads with great success. 5/5 Deborah K.

The Intensity Will Not Increase, It Stays Barely On
Like Maria, that is happening to me too. I liked the device alot, and it was working fine. I am a medical esthetician so I know how to properly use the device. Now all of a sudden once you turn it on, it stays at the lowest possible setting even if you turn the knob to increase intensity, I have to turn the whole device in awkward postions to try and increase the intensity, but it doesn't last, and goes back to barely being on, I'm afraid it will just stop working all together. 2/5 A.

Great product great price
My mother runs skin care salons in Colorado and has been using high frequency machines for over twenty years. The machines are VERY expensive. My daughter has reached the lovely teen years and finds her skin breaking out from time to time,as my mother lives several states away going to her for the HF machine was not an option and the salons locally charge crazy prices for treatments. So i took he plunge and bought this one... not much of a plunge as it was very inexpensive. WE LOVE IT.Great price and beautifully packaged, easy to use. I use it for skin toning and it works a treat. BUT BEWARE>>> ON ALL OF THESE MACHINES THE GLASS IMPLEMENTS ARE VERY FRAGILE!!! We have been fine with ours, but friends who have bought this sadly jammed the implement in too far to the wand or used too much force and they broke.
