What acne system works better?
I have tried proactive and i have tried differin and all those other cleansers. i recently have bought the "clean and clear Spot treatment." not the whole kit just the spot treatment and it is working miracles it keeps my acne down. i only leaves faint red spots due to blemishes and scars. my question is what has worked better for everyone between the "neutrogena complete acne therapy system or the clean and clear advantage kit.' im debating on going to the clean and clear because the spot treatment is working really well or if the neutrogena is actually all around better for clearing up blemishes, scars, acne. and leaving your skin soft and clear. the neutrogena has slightly better reviews. it has almost 4 out of my stars and the clean and clear has about 3 out of 5. neutrogena is also a bit more expensive. I am just curious on what has worked better for people that have tried one of these or both. Answers are greatly appreciated thank you. 10 points to the best review answer.

I can say from experience that Neutrogena products have worked great for me-even when proactive didn’t. Everyone is a little different, and what works great for some won’t work great for everyone, that is why there is so many different products out there. Why not give the clean and clear system a try, esp since the spot treatment is doing well for you?
After I got my acne under control (or grew out of it, or maybe it was the birth control hormones? I don’t know what stopped it altogether but acne meds helped) I turned to neutrogenas healthy skin face lotions, the ones with the alpha hydroxy acid in it. It helps fade those marks on your face left by acne–not pockmarks, but the other little marks you have left behind if you liked to pick at them like I used to lol. Neutrogenas lotions are light and easy to use everyday and although it is very gradual it helped even out my skin a lot and fade those old scars!

If you have tried all of those treatments and nothing has worked to your satisfaction, I would say it is time to see a dermatologist! Sometimes over the counter acne medications are not suitable for your skin type. They have really good acne medication out there but the best stuff is prescribed by a derm. if all else fails. Good luck
