Skin Care Review: Neutrogena Advanced Solutions Acne Mark Fading Pee

Rating
Excellent

Benefits
Treats acne and reduces acne scarring.

Drawbacks
Some redness and peeling.

Details
I have very oily, acne-prone skin that tends to be very susceptible to scarring. My main acne medication is prescription Tazorac, which has kept the blemishes mostly under control; it hasn't helped my scarring, however.

I have been using the Acne Mark Fading Peel every three days for about two and half weeks, and I've definitely noticed a difference. I have fewer acne blemishes, the scars are paler, and my skin looks smoother and fresher. It's as close to miraculous as any skin care product is going to get. It is, however, very strong (2% salicylic acid) and I've noticed some redness and peeling. The side effects are not as bad as the ones I had when I began the Tazorac, and my moisturizer (Dove Sensitive Essentials Day Lotion, and the Dove bar for sensitive skin) has mostly kept them at bay.

Conclusions
A really wonderful treatment, as long as you have faith in your moisturizer.
