Customer Reviews of Zeno Acne Clearing Device with 60-Count Cartridge
Customer Review: Zeno works well for both adult and teen acne
Summary: 5 Stars
Let me start by saying that this product is not for severe acne. It is best served for those of us who get those regularly monthly flare-ups...but not for those who get a lot of pimples, maybe 10 or more at a clip. I have been using Zeno for about a year now, but I'm not one of those internet junkies that cares much what other reviewers think. I like to buy a product and judge it based on its own merits, not that of someone else's experiences whatever they may be (plus, I think most internet customer reviews are bogus anyways--In the past, if I did try to research a product on the internet this way, I would notice similar commentaries all across the internet, especially when it came to skin care products). Plus, what works well for some may not work well for others. Like I said, what matters to me most is what happens when I use a product on my skin, and a good return policy at a local retail store where I can return it if necessary.
I have moderate acne and your typical combination fair skin, with more oiliness in the T Zone. It has been this way all my life, even since my teens. I have been to a reputable Dermatologist and tried MANY different medicines, creams, pills, diets, etc. too. The problem typically was the same, either peel city and/or way too harsh to use all over my face, or it would stop working after a while. I have not found this to happen with Zeno, since I am not having to treat every orifice of my face. Zeno is a very efficient spot treatment that uses steady heat, a very low and comfortable heat that does not hurt your skin. It started working from the very beginning on my skin and I began to see results literally after my first application. The pimple will typically flatten immediately after a Zeno application, and start to get smaller the first day. I have even used it on cystic pimples successfully, even though it says it is not for this type of pimple. Recently, I had several cystic and regular pimples pop up at one time but zapped them, along with washing regularly, and they went away in 1-2 days. When I say went away, I mean that the pimples reduced about 80-100% in this timeframe (most 100%). My larger pimples were much smaller--almost an unnoticeable spec that makeup hides easily and the other ones had completely cleared up. When I first bought it, I thought you had to wait for at least a week before you saw any results, but I saw them in one night! It works quicker if you catch the pimples in the early stage, well before you get the urge to pick. My reoccurrences are less frequent now after using regularly. I did have one pimple that was THAT bad and I picked. The pimple went away quickly but the scab took the regular week+ to heal. So, do resist this urge as the pimple was still gone quickly, but not the scab from where I squeezed.
Anyways, Zeno is a great solution for acne, just not severe acne (it actually mentions this in the manual). We have found it to work extremely well in our family for teen acne too. It is an innovative, and effective approach to eliminating pimples without using any chemicals on your skin, which gives me more comfort. My skin now looks so much better and I haven't had any drying effects, or anything else...Maybe a slight pinkness occasionally in the affected skin region which lasts maybe 15 minutes.
Bottom line: Overall, a solid product with solid results for me and my family after over a year of use. We will continue to use it. Do give it at least a month to learn as new pimples emerge and do read the instructions, so important! These things take time to learn, and good things are worth the wait. Every once in a while, you might have a pimple that does not react. It is available at most local retail stores too, so you can return it easily if it doesn't work for you.
Description of Zeno Acne Clearing Device with 60-Count Cartridge
Zeno is an acne clearing device. It is a hand-held, portable electronic medical device that is clinically proven to make pimples disappear fast. In fact, for treating acne pimples, it's the most scientifically advanced and effective device available without a prescription. Zeno is for people with mild to moderate inflammatory acne.Zeno is a hand-held battery-operated device designed with a tip that heats to a pre-set temperature. The biocompatible tip is designed for direct contact with a blemish on the skin. Once in contact with a blemish, the tip will transfer heat into the follicle. An internal PID controller chip continually modulates the temperature to a fixed range even under different skin and circulation conditions by adjusting the flow of energy to match precisely the heat absorption of the individual user. Zeno?s microprocessor adapts not only to your individual skin type but also to the heat absorption characteristics of the location of the pimple. Your Zeno adapts to you! An integral digital timer controls the treatment time. The level of heat does not cause skin damage.

Specifically, Zeno stimulates a heat-shock response in p. acnes, the bacteria causing at least 90% of all acne blemishes. Heat shock proteins, activated by bacterial cells under heat stress, cause the self-destruction of p. acnes within the lesion, reducing inflammation and allowing the skin to return to a healthy state.
What is Zeno?
Zeno is a handheld, portable electronic medical device that is clinically proven to make pimples disappear fast. In fact, for treating acne pimples, it's the most scientifically advanced and effective device available without a prescription.
What does it do?
Zeno applies a precisely controlled heat dose directly to the pimple through a metal pad. One treatment lasts 2½ minutes. Two to three treatments spread over 24 hours clear up most pimples quickly. It's that simple.
How does it work?
Pimples occur when excess skin oil and flaking skin plug the opening of a hair follicle and create the ideal environment for acne bacteria to grow. Precisely controlled heat applied for a specific period of time causes the bacteria to self-destruct. When the bacteria die, the pimple goes away.
How many treatments does it take?
Two to three 2½-minute treatments spread over 24 hours are sufficient for most pimples. Often, only one treatment is needed.
Who should use Zeno?
Zeno is for people with mild to moderate inflammatory acne. If in doubt, ask your doctor.
When should Zeno be used?
Use Zeno at the first sign of a pimple. It works best when used on a pimple in the early stages of development. Also, the sooner pimples are cleared up, the less chance they have to leave scars.
How does Zeno compare with topical or oral treatments?
Zeno can clear up a pimple in just hours. Most other medications can take days or even weeks to work. What's more, other than slight, temporary skin redness, Zeno has none of the side effects described by most topical or oral medications.
Is Zeno safe and painless?
Patients included in our clinical trials experienced little reaction to the low-level heat. Other than some temporary skin redness following a treatment cycle, no other adverse side effects were reported. But should you experience any discomfort when using Zeno, discontinue use and consult your skin care professional.
Is Zeno all I need for acne?
Zeno does not replace good skin hygiene or a doctor's care. It is designed to treat mild to moderate inflammatory acne. Your doctor may recommend other therapies, depending on the severity of your acne. Follow your doctor's advice and use Zeno for the occasional pimple.
