Reviews for dapsone topical to treat Acne

Aczone (dapsone): I have had severe acne for years. I finally found this topical, and am extremely happy. I have been using it for almost a month. I don't get any severe drying, but it does keep my skin less oily looking (it's usually very oily), I don't have any peeling, redness or sun-sensitivity. I also have a marked reduction in the inflammation of nodules/cysts. It literally shrinks them after application, so I use it before I go out if I have a noticeable red bump or big cyst. I am really pleased, and just hoping it gets better from here. It has also improved the texture and look of my scars, so much so friends and family have commented without me asking! I would definitely recommend this, especially if you have severe acne, adult acne or scarring.

Aczone (dapsone): This stuff is amazing! When I hit 30 I started breaking out horribly. I'm talking at least 3 a day including the deep cystic ones. My dermatologist started me on this and I noticed a difference in a couple of days. Two weeks later I was 85% clear. I've been on this now for 5 weeks and am now at 95%. I do get an occasional here and there, but it's nothing like I was dealing with this before. You can buy over the counter things that you want, but this will get your face clean and it's stayed clear for me. Knock on Wood!

Aczone (dapsone): I am a 49 year old woman with acne, rosacea, and sensitive skin and I have finally found a solution in Aczone. My face is nearly clear. I won't say it's perfect, because I do have an occasional stray bump here and there, but my whole face simply calmed down. I've reduced the number of medications I use to three - aczone, oracea and kuric cream. I am not photosensitive to this like I have been to other topical treatments. It is a little drying but nothing like some other medicines I've tried. I found an improvement almost immediately. I am thankful that it has been placed on the market. It's worth every penny to me.

Aczone (dapsone): I've had cystic acne for about a year now. The gel seems to be working and doesn't irritate my skin either. I'm not getting as many breakouts. I've been using it for 3 weeks now.
