I used a generic version of Proactive. I have sensitive skin so I had to stop. My skin was the best it had looked in a long time but I had to go the dermatologist and get steriods to heal my face afterwards. I got a chemical burn on my face which was like having a bad sun burn and my skin was so dry it hurt to talk. I had a friend who used it and swore by it which is why I finally decided to try the product.
I can't recommend it but then again, I have sensitive skin.
I now use Cetaphil with the blue label, not the one with the green strip on the lable. I follow that with Oil of Olay acne treating toner with salicylic acid. I then use an moisture control lotion for sensitive skin by Oil of Olay. I couldn't find an SPF 30 but this has a SPF 15. The sun protection will help the scar from getting worse. |
