For Acne "I stopped taking my birth control, and I began to experience severe cystic acne. I tried everything from over-the-counter acne treatments to prescriptions to home remedies and masks. NOTHING worked. I figured I’d give the dermatologist another try when she recommended Onexton Gel 1.2-3.75%. I immediately noticed a change in my skin, and my breakouts completely stopped. I’ve been on this medication for about 6 weeks, and I’ve gotten one small pimple on my cheek that went away within 3 days. The only thing I will criticize is that it can leave your skin dry, but this is nothing a little moisturizer can’t fix. I would most DEFINITELY recommend this medication to those struggling with cystic, inflammatory, and hormonal acne. I can truly say it’s been the only acne medication that has worked for me and has made me so much happier!"

For Acne "I spent over $100 for Onexton to completely destroy my skin. Do not use this if you have sensitive skin. It made my skin so dry and sensitive that I caused more breakouts. I have disfiguring scars from the cystic pimples that Onexton caused. I stopped using this six months ago, and my pores are still large, my skin is red, and since my skin is so sensitive, I constantly have breakouts that I can’t do anything to prevent since topicals could cause further damage. This is definitely one of my worst decisions."

For Acne "If I could give this a negative, I would. After one use, my skin was so tight and dry and looked as if I had leather for skin. My face became bright red like a sunburn. At first, I thought I was having an allergic reaction, and the leathery feeling was hives, so I took Benadryl. Nothing changed. I’m on day 3 and still have awful skin. I only used it once, and I want my money back. This is the worst skin cleanser I have ever used, and I advise anyone to use over-the-counter face wash instead."

For Acne "I switched my birth control and started getting some breakouts, so I started using Onexton. It cleared my skin pretty fast, but it just makes my skin super dry and irritated that I have to use super heavy moisturizers. Other than that, it’s effective in preventing breakouts and getting rid of acne."
