I've been using Differin for 5 weeks now. My skin had seemed to be improving but then all of a sudden the last few days I've had several new break outs. It's a little frustrating but I'll continue using it as it can take up to 12 weeks for the best results. I'll just keep my fingers crossed.

I love Differin. My skin is always pretty dry and red though. It has dramatically improved my skin but I still suffer from breakouts and blackheads. Now they are just smaller. Decent product if you have mild to moderate acne.

I don't have that severe of acne, but I do have regular pimples, including the cyst-like kind that hurt. I get them on my face, back, and chest. Differin worked wonders on my skin with very little irritation. I recommend it for sure!

My acne became worst within the first 2 weeks of using Differin, then all of a sudden it began to get better. The improvements must have happened at night because I would get excited in the mornings when I washed my face. I have to strongly agree with the person who posted before me. DO NOT GET YOUR EYEBROWS WAXED while using this product. My skin was ripped off and immediately turned red. A day or so later it left this large UGLY scar under my eyebrows. About a week later it peeled and was fine, but who wants to go through that.

This medication helped to clear up my acne within the first couple of weeks of use. However, I think my body developed a resistance to the active ingredient, and some (not all) of the acne returned. The severity of the acne was much less than before treatment. One negative side effect I experienced was increased sensitivity and a red rash that extended down my neck. What ever you do, do not get your eyebrows waxed while using this product. My skin was ripped off with my eyebrows when I had them waxed.
