Does the Differin Acne Gel really work?

Differin gel how affective is it?

• ok so i went to the derm today and i do not have severe acne at all but rather occasional and i wanted something to clear my skin when i get the occasional breakouts. I got prescribed differin gel and wanted to know does it work? i am excited to begin it!

• Answer:

  I found it works really well. I had the same symptoms you described: the occasional acne swelling here or there on my face or neck. When applied, the spot usually cleared up 8-48 hrs later. It was especially useful when I felt a spot under several layers of skin, which had not yet risen to the surface. In those cases, I would apply Differin several times during the day, after washing my hands, and trying to keep the area free from dirt & makeup. See the links below, especially the rebate for $10!
