Even Accutane didn't work for me..., November 6, 2007
This review is from: La Roche-Posay Effaclar K Acne Treatment Fluid (30ml) 1 Fluid Ounce (Health and Beauty)
I highly recommend this product in combination with other Biomedic products from LaRoche-Posay for the treatment of stubborn acne. I had trouble with moderate to severe acne for most of my 20s. I tried everything - accutane, 5 kinds of antibiotics, differin gel, ortho tri-cyclen + aldactone, stuff from tv, and oftentimes, I used several of the treatments in combination, as directed by my ever-hopeful dermatologist. Finally, I went to a plastic surgeon to see about some scar treatments, and before he did any major procedures, he put me on a combination of effaclar K, a couple of other biomedic products, Retin-A micro, and I had regular micro-dermabrasion and/or facial peel treatments. Retin-A Micro gave me really dry skin, so after I cut that out, everything else worked perfectly. I know other people's recommendations can be annoying, especially when you're certain that nothing will work, but I'd say that this product is worth a try! It really did help me. I continued to use it even after I stopped going to regular microdermabrasion appointments, and I have never had a reoccurence of acne. (As a side note, I also avoided major plastic surgery as a result of the success.)

Outstanding, November 18, 2008
This review is from: La Roche-Posay Effaclar K Acne Treatment Fluid (30ml) 1 Fluid Ounce (Health and Beauty)
I wish I had found this product long ago.
It is the only thing I've actually rated 5-star on Amazon because I believe it rates it.
It reduces visible zits when applied directly to them- sometimes in just a couple of hours.
When applied to the whole face after a warm shower just before bed, you wake up with a clearer, cleaner, tighter face. The acidity kills acne-causing bacteria on and below the surface of the skin, dissolving oily residue, preventing clogged pores, and eating away dead skin.
I found this product in Paris, and a few years later it started to be exported to the USA. Until then, I was spending alot of money to purchase and ship it here into the USA where I live. Now that it is available on Amazon.com, I'm so overwhelmed with happiness.
I cannot possibly say enough. This stuff really is that good. 10/10!!!

FANTASTIC!!!, February 20, 2009
This review is from: La Roche-Posay Effaclar K Acne Treatment Fluid (30ml) 1 Fluid Ounce (Health and Beauty)
This product is absolutely awesome. I've had acne since childhood and tried this when I was in my mid 30's. I've tried many products including Proactiv. I was introduced to this at the dermatologist's office. Adult acne is now gone. I bought some for my kids (ages 14 & 21) and their acne is gone. This product doesn't dry out the skin and a small tube goes a long way. You don't have to use much. Just a small dab. It also works wonders for preventing razor bumps. After shaving, apply this to the shaved area and no razor bumps. My 21 yo loves it for acne and razor bumps.
