Everyone's skin is different, so of course Proactiv is going to affect everyone differently. I have been using Proactiv for probably about six months, and my skin has cleared up, but it is never totally clear. I have really sensitive skin, and Proactiv didn't burn or irritate my skin. I'm satisfied with it.

It's obviously not going to work for everyone. Just like how some people are allergic to medications, some people will have their condition worsened by Proactiv. The majority of people see some sort of improvement - it just might not be worth the money you're paying.
I used it for probably 2 or 3 years. I can't tell how much it contributed to my clear skin seeing as I ended up having a medical condition that may have caused excess acne and have since been on medication for it. Also, seeing as I started as a teenager and still technically am a teenager, it could have just been a matter of my "growing out of it", so to speak.
For most people, it makes their skin really greasy. So, make sure you take advantage of the daily oil control cream that they offer.

well it worked for me but i did not have the worse case of acne sometimes i would skip a day or two because my skin would get red and wen i would see a pimple coming on i would start washing and applying the acne lotion if you find its not working for you invest in going to see a dermatologist its worth the money if it makes you fell better about yourself for me it took about a month in worse casesmaybe longer my nehew itworked after two months like i say maybe you need another treatment go see a dermatologist

I used it and it totaly sucked.
And recently I got the zits to start disapearing.
Get 1 Table Spoon of Braggs Organic Apple Cider Vinegar and mix it with 8 oz of water and drink it at least once a day, sometime around dinner, and you'll see the beautiful results. You'll clean your blood and stomach very soon, you'll even start pooping better, it's normal if you'll notice that.
