For Acne "Also, for the people saying it dries out your skin very badly, you must be using too much. It does dry your skin out, but not badly at all. You're supposed to use a very, very little bit of it on your acne. Not your whole face, just your acne. I learned the hard way. I loaded it up on my chin, and it made my chin so dry, itchy, and red. It looked horrible, like my whole chin was scabbed. It went away after I stopped putting the cream on it for a day or two."

For Acne "I went to a new dermatologist because my acne is out of control. I've had acne for 10 years, and this is the worst it has ever been. He gave me Acanya for the morning, and it stings so bad I could cry. My face turns red, it's tight, burning, and not improving. I've been using Acanya for almost a week, I know results might take longer. As for now, I am not happy. Just be warned, it is very drying and can make your day uncomfortable."

For Acne "I just got it two days ago, and almost all of my acne has cleared up. I have normal skin, which dries out a bit with this, but if I just moisturize a bit, it works wonders."
