Works great on my back May 21, 2010 D. Heimlich (San Francisco, CA) I've been dealing for years with back acne...antibiotics, all the prescription creams and everything out there. Using this daily on just my back keeps it pretty clear. It is not spotless and I'm still prone every now and then but this has been such a wonderful product to really, really keep it under control.
Works for me! April 19, 2010 gd586 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
So, I'm 22 and have had really bad chest and back acne since I was 16. I used to have acne on my face but that cleared up by the time I was 20 luckily...though the back and chest acne remained, sadly. I've tried a lot of different treatments for my chest and back acne:
Benzoyl Peroxide 8.5% (in liquid form)
Neutrogena Body Clear Body Wash (Salicylic Acid)
Bactrim (worked OKAY, but didn't clear acne away 100%)
Tetracycline
Solodyn
It seems that for some reason, Benzoyl Peroxide in soap form works for me. Maybe it's the extra 1.5%? I'm pretty sure the key is letting the soap sit on your skin for the full 1 to 2 minutes that the instructions direct. (1 to 2 minutes feels like an eternity in the shower). This is pretty necessary because the skin your back is pretty thick. Also, I haven't been having the dry skin problems that other people haven't written about. I would recommend trying this product if you are out of luck like I was with other acne products.
*note: since I started using panoxyl, I also stopped eating junk food like pizza, cheeseburgers, french fries, fried chicken and completely stopped eating at fast food restaurants- so my back and chest acne clearing up may be attributed to this. My dermatologist says that acne has nothing to do with what you eat - but he's also the one who prescribed all those other treatments that didn't work. So I'm not entirely sure.
***EDIT***
Unfortunately, my acne has come even though I'm still using PanOxyl. Maybe it's in my diet because it varies, but it's back. Really there's too many variables to control for, so there's no way for me to truly know if PanOxyl really works. But I'm gonna keep using it.
not good! March 12, 2010 eric w (Northwest, Indiana) I have been using this for about a week now. Im an 18 year old male and reading all of the stellar reviews I thought I would give it a try. Well... all the way from my ear to my chin is a series of red bumps that look like pimples ready to break the surface. The funny thing is that I didn't think that it was that harsh when I was washing my face with it. I used the same lotion that I always do, my skin never peeled or flaked. Bottom line, I have stopped using it, and its been 2 days and I am going back to clean and clear acne kit. It may have worked for others, but I would not recommend this product at all, my skin has never ever looked this bad.
So far, so good! March 2, 2010 S. Hansen (Ca United States) Let me first start off by saying (like many others) that I have tried almost every single acne product out there, from Retin A to Proactive, to Salicylic acid, to Oxy pads to Clearasil and nothing has ever worked. My doctor told me the only thing that would ever "cure" acne is Acutane, which I did not want to use. I have used products containing benzoyl peroxide before, but have only used facial treatments containing up to 5%. When I came across the 10% bar and all the positive reviews that came with it I thought I'd give it a shot. Yes, it is drying. Yes, you do need to use a moisturizer. Yes, it is working!!! I use this bar in the morning and at night and although my face isn't totally clear, within the first week of using I have noticed a big difference. I hope it continues to make my face even more happier as time goes by!
Be consistent! January 30, 2010 Beautiful Life This was probably the first acne soap I had consistently used for a few weeks and I was definitely seeing improvement in my skin! If you can stick to washing your face once a day with this you should see improvement too! It did dry my skin out a little so I would put on some Vitamin E cream after I washed my face.
