I have a heritary skin problem: rough skin, excessively rough skin! My 3 children have it, and I recall my mother complaining of it too. I started using this about 15 years ago and saw a dramatic improvement. The down side is that it had to be used very carefully to avoid a wicked burn. It takes a while (about 3 weeks) after using it every other day before it kicks in. Use this very carefully. ...
Just started using this on my 9 year old sons muluscom. will post results soon. anyone else used it for this condition?

I’ve been using this for three weeks now and it definitely causes you to purge out a lot of breakouts, also don’t use too much! I gave myself burns and had to restart completely after a week break. Hopefully after the purging my skin will be clear.

I've been using this medication for my hormonal acne for almost one year now and I have mixed emotions. It has been working but for one year my skin has not been cleared all the way. I continue to use it because nothing else has helped my hormonal cystic acne on my jawline. I say this because in the morning my skin looks good but by the afternoon I get flare-ups.

I had really bad acne with dark spots residuals from my acne and large pores on my face. I tried many over the counter and TV products. This product has worked excellent for my skin problems. It do not take a lot I apply small amounts every night. I make sure I wash and remove the medication in the mornings. Sometimes I have to use it every other night related to some facial soreness. Follow your doctors instructions when using this product and you will benefit greatly from this product.

We have tried many other treatments, but this is the only one that works. Read More Read Less

I was on this medication a few years ago. It was not covered by my prev. heath insurance. New healthcare, now covered. It retails for $140.00 per 30 gram tube. Blue Cross/Shield co pay was $10.00. I am over 35 and have adult acne. It works so well that I am often asked for ID when going out. (No, not just for a big tip)It has mild irritation and some tingling sensations when you first start. Be ware if you use microderm kits at home. Your skin may get very red. Watch the sun too. I have olive skin that tans easily in sun. Use 30 SPF or more on your face. Good luck!Read More Read Less
