Editorial Review: Effective Acne Treatment: Zeno clears pimples in people with mild to moderate inflammatory acne. It is a hand-held, portable electronic medical device that is clinically proven to make pimples disappear fast. Zeno is the most scientifically advanced and effective acne device available without a prescription. The proprietary Zeno technology triggers a heat shock response in microorganisms that cause skin lesions, bringing about the self-destruction of those bacteria and allowing the skin to return to a healthy, normal state. In the case of acne, the P. acnes bacterium is the root cause of 90 percent of all acne pimples. Zeno is a simple electronic product designed to safely heat an acne lesion to a pre-set temperature range known to generate heat shock response. Heat shock response is a reaction bacteria have to heat whereby they transcript a number of genes and activate heat-shock proteins. These heat-shock proteins participate in the bacteria's death by causing the bacteria to self-de...

Yup, it worked for me, 2007-04-23
I was a bit apprehensive about spending this much money on an acne "device", but I was desperate.. I had a big date in two days and I was starting to develop two large cystic zits right on my forehead. I was completely floored by the device, my zits were gone by the day of my date. The Zeno works as described by the other reviews, I used it about every 4 hours. I found that it was most effective in immediately reducing the swelling. I dont usually write reviews, but the Zeno definetly worked for me and I will recommend it to my friends. I started out with the 60 count cartridge, but refills are only $25, about the same as a bottle of Proactiv Cleanser.

Zeno better than Proactiv for Sensitive Skin, 2007-04-11
I bought this product for my teenage daughter who does not have terrible acne, but does get a pimple here & there. The pimples make her self-conscious. She tried Proactiv but it was too strong & although it dried out the pimples, it also made her skin burn. So far the Zeno has been great. She only needs to use it on pimples when she has them. Not every day. When she does use it the pimples dissappear overnight & her skin doesn't get overdried & sensitive.

It works! Just modify the directions and your expectations, 2007-03-12
Having had perfectly clear skin through my teens, 20s, and most of my 30s, I now have post-pregnancy adult-onset cystic acne that began at age 36. My skin is far too delicate and sensitive to tolerate most OTC acne products. I bought this product out of desperation, not believing it would work. After reading hundreds of reviews and advice and testing it for 2 weeks, I have found that it works well, with some modifications. My experience: cystic acne goes through its normal cycle (rising to surface, becoming a hideous scab, etc.) in a fraction of the normal time (4 days versus 4 weeks) when treated as directed with Zeno, OR it disappears completely without ever having risen to the surface (after a week or so), when treated very aggressively with Zeno. My advice: Don't expect it to work after 1-3 treatments and in 24 hours as advertised. Do know that with diligence and patience, it will work. Be very aggressive. Do double-cycles (allow the Zeno to remain on your skin after it beeps, then press the button for a second cycle) every few hours as long as the bump is detectable in any way. You may get very slight burning of your skin (causing a whitish film or slight peeling) and you may go through your cartridge tips quickly, but believe me, it's worth it to avoid the horrible months-long process of cystic acne. I am using this in conjunction with a very thorough natural skincare regime and improved nutrition, and seeing the results I have hoped for after 2 weeks.

Great buy for those with cystic acne, 2007-03-09
Nowadays people are more cost-consious than ever when it comes down to buying something that's worth every penny. Simply put, this is a device that people should be confident in investing in. The Zeno is a great device for ONLY those who have acne consisting of cysts that: take forever to rise to the surface of the skin, are painful, are embarrasing, and take forever to perish from the skin. After a double-cycle treatment on a cyst that is just beginning under the skin, the pain goes away (yes, that means breaking the rules of the directions which say only one cycle. This works more efficiently, basically). Once done, the majority of the bacteria inside the cyst will die, causing the sequence of the cyst to stagnate and even reverse itself (often slowly, but surely). It also becomes less visually apparent, heals faster, and has a much lesser chance of leaving a scar. Thus, you can actually walk outside your home feeling a bit more confident in your appearance! The only complaint I have is the fact that it's time-consuming for the device to start up, but it's technology...

Great , 2007-02-28
It helps you dry and burns the wattery thing inside your face out.
This is a non toxic device used to heat up the pimples until it get small and dry.
This product is better than Proactiv.
Proactive does not work on my face instead it irritates and get worst.
Try to wash your face with Dove skin soap for more than 1hr to soften your face and remove the pus. Then, path it dry and use Zeno, and don't over use this product because it might hurt and burn your skin.
Failure to use this product properly might cause 1st Degree burn.
Never use any chemicals on your face while using this product.
For excessive large pimples, I see some people apply a clean duct tape on their face, keep it for 3-8 hrs and remove it.
You would notice that all pus are lying on your face and you just need to clean it using clean water and a skin soap.
