 African American woman's review. Thumbs up!!! September 6, 2007

I only started breaking out with acne in my early thirties. After trying the Loreal adult acne system for 2 months & Proactiv for 6 months with minimal results, I decided to give this a try. Yes, it made my skin very dry the first few weeks but I used a moisturizer over it kept using it and got fantastic results. I had the hard, large painful nodules on my face and this not only cleared them but I don't even break out anymore. One kit lasted me 6 months and my skin is soft & smooth. After the acne went it away, it did leave behind the black marks but Avon's skin brightener faded those out almost overnight. I highly recommend this product.
Worked BETTER than Proactiv!! January 29, 2007

First off I want to explain that I have had terrible acne off and on (mostly on though) for the past 8 years. I had to be put on Accutane my sophmore year for 6 months in high school and then again my freshman year of college for another 3 months. I have been struggling ever since then and needed an alternative to dermatoligist bills and prescriptions for acne treatment.
I was having extremely painful and frequent breakouts in the later half of last year and in early November I happened to stumble upon this product. I had my doubts because I had already given Proactiv a couple of tries in the past.
The first week of using the 4 products in the package my face became EXTREMELY dry! At first I was worried because it would always be a little red and irritated for the first hour or two after going through the routine. However, within 4 days ALL of my blemishes (big and small) had cleared up! Within a couple of weeks my skin even became smoother, softer, and more even-toned. Trust me, if you have problem skin and want to try something new, this product is definitely worth a shot!
Also, I love that you can buy this in pretty much any Walgreens and Walmart so it's very convenient...no waiting for it to be delivered. I purhased mine at Walmart for $20-something in November 2006 and still have more than half remaining of each product in the pack.
Thank you University Medical for making an affordable product that actually works! Best of luck to all of you who are struggling with acne...and don't mark this one off your list!
I LOVE THIS PRODUCT March 21, 2007

ok, i must warn you that i may sound like an infomercial, but i am hooked on this product for my acne problems.
i have tried proactiv, murad, another acne kit that i can't think of the name in addition to separate topicals (e.g. noxzema, clearasil, etc.) and none have given me the results that this product gives. i have even tried the milder version of the acne free system and didn't have as good results as i get with the severe acne free system. i wouldn't recommend this product for those with dry or sensitive skin and acne. this is a very drying formula that works on my very oily face.
i never thought of my acne as severe, but i would always have a big zit in one place or another on my face that would leave big scars after the zit went away. now, i have not had a breakout since using this product (3 months). i hope it works for you!
Amazing! December 27, 2009

Let me start this out by stating that I am in my 30's and have tried every acne product known to man for about 15 years. I have seen a dermatologist, resorted to birth control and used everything from neutrogena to murad, as well as proactiv. None of these worked for me, and most actually made my skin worse.
When you're in your 30's and are STILL dealing with acne, you start to wish for wrinkles, because who has wrinkles and acne, right?!?! I was starting to think I would be one of the few dealing with both, and that was a pretty depressing prospect.
I usually check out reviews on everything before I buy it, but when I saw this product at target, and saw that it was marketed specifically for severe acne, I bought it without knowing a thing about it (sidenote: this product was 21.99 there).
I know it sounds crazy, but I saw a difference in my skin the next day, after only applying it before I went to bed. Prior to purchasing this, I had just had a terrible experience with Burts Bees acne products, which had made my skin red, even more oily, and had produced terrible pre-pubescent breakouts along both sides of my chin. After one application of acne free, the redness was reduced significantly, and some of my more painfull bumps had gone down in size...which is huge.
I was ecstatic, but had experienced these results with other topical treatments, only to be let down a week or so later, when my skin would eventually return to its angry self. So I waited two weeks before sharing my review.
It is now three weeks after starting application, and my skin has honestly never been so clear. I still have a few bumps, but compared to what I was dealing with before, I'll take them. Because this is a benzoyl peroxide based product, after a few weeks my skin became really tight, and that led to a few minor bumps. I started using an oil free, fragrance free moisturizer (olay regenerist), and that cleared everything up.
My husband has remarked on how much brighter my skin looks, and I am over the moon. I have even gone to the grocery store without makeup (and not wanted to die of humiliation). If you have skin like mine, you know what a huge, amazing thing this is.
Prior to using acne free, I had small bumps, whiteheads, and periodic cystic bumps that were super painful. It may not have looked severe to other people, but it felt pretty darn severe to me after dealing with it for so long. I would absolutely, whole heartedly reccomend this product to anyone dealing with acne. Just invest in some great moisturizer if you have sensitive skin.
Worked for me in 3 weeks June 20, 2009

Since my 20's I've struggled with cystic acne (I'm now 48), with bouts of one to two cysts at any given time. Usually one is healing while a new one is forming. They are painful, disfiguring and slow to heal. Took 2 rounds of Accutane which was supposed to cure me, but didn't. I've developed my own "surgical" intervention when possible, but the cyst has to follow a specific pattern to open with a sterile needle. If all else fails I go to the dermatologist for a steroid shot. For some reason, I've gone through a worse episode than normal so I bought AcneFree on 5/21 I'm four weeks in and this last week my face has begun to clear - no new cysts and the old ones healing more quickly than usual. In addition, the quality of my skin is improving. I'm also pleased that I've not experienced extreme dryness as others report. So far I am a happy customer.
July 28th, 2009 update - still no new blemishes. Face is clear for the 1st time in months. Still a happy customer.
