Acne clearing device for help with acne

There are a couple acne clearing devices on the market and all claim to be the best device to help with acne. Now we know that can’t be true just because they all can’t be the best acne clearing device. Only one can be the best.

The Zeno seems to get the most publicity but there are others that claim to be as good or better and clearing up acne. They all work and I’m sure that one device may work better for certain people but another device may work better for other people. If you need help with acne it’s something you should consider before spending hundreds of dollars on other things that don’t work very well.

Back when I was young and had acne there was very little available to help. The old, quit eating chocolate and fat foods, wash face umpteen times a day. Then came Clearasil and the alcohol pads for using on your face. They didn’t work to well but you could get some extra dirt off your face with the alcohol pads. Antibiotics worked best for me but Drs. didn’t like to give them out for acne.

It was purely accidental that I figured out antibiotics worked to help with my acne. I used to get tonsillitis a lot and would get antibiotics for that problem. Every time I took the antibiotics my skin cleared up in less than a week.

These acne clearing devices would have been handy back then. Anyway, these devices work with heat applied to the pimple to help kill the bacteria. The Zeno use a tip to better control the application of heat to the pimple and it gets about 150 uses per tip. Yes, you can get replacement tips. They work really well if you can use it on the pimple the first time you notice the little bump. Many people say they’ve been able to stop pimples from appearing with that tactic.

Then there’s the Claro that uses a combination of heat and light. It’s easy to use and it’s painless. In any type of acne device painless is important. It uses blue light to stimulate oxygen production to kill bacteria, red light combined with heat to make the inflammation, redness and feel and look better. They say it also promotes faster healing.

I haven’t seen anything that would lead me to believe that any acne clearing device works very well with severe cystic acne. If I were young again I’d check with all of my friends to see if they’ve used any of these devices and what they think of them. Don’t believe all the hype the manufactures and websites give you. They are trying to sell you something and what’s in it for them is the profit they make. Profit is what they are looking for more than they are looking to help you.

Acne is a problem for a lot of people and lots of people freak out and try every silly thing that comes along. Do your research first, check out comments on products at Amazon.com and other places. Then decide for yourself if the acne cures that people are pushing really work. Also keep in mind that what works for one persons skin may not work for yours.


One of the best ways to get fair reviews is by going to amazon.com and searching for the product your interested in. Then go read the comments and see if you still want the acne clearing device or what ever it is you are looking for. If most people trash it you probably don’t want it.

Acne sucks but wasting money on acne cures sucks twice as bad when they don’t work so checkout how well these acne clearing devices and other products work before you waste your money on the ones that don’t work. Get the right product and you’ll be happier and best of all, your acne will be gone.
