I started using Proactiv earlier this week.  I'm just wondering how long it will take before I start to see some results.  I know everyone's skin is different but I'm still curious.

Well you should start to see some changes after a couple weeks. Your skin might become drier though as it is still adjusting. Dont be discouraged. The product really takes a good 4-6 weeks to make significant changes since it takes that long for whatever is already in your pores and skin to come out and skin cells become replaced. It took me about 4 weeks until I noticed much better skin. I didn't have very bad skin to begin with, just the odd pimples here and there, but I couldnt stand them at all. I have been using Proactive for about a 1.5 years and I very rarely get one single pimple, and usually I can get rid of it at very early stages with the products. I guess everyone is different, but it really does work, you just have to give it the chance.

I have bad rosacea and decided to try Proactiv to help with the bumps I get from it. After a few days I noticed a difference. I don't use the repairing lotion anymore though because it's too drying. And I only use the cleanser about 2 times a week. I do use the glycolic acid toner twice a day and that keeps my face pretty clear and really smooth.

I only use everything at night.  I never even tried it twice a day, what I saw I was happy with!  My skin has never been bad but I was sick of the bumps that I got.  I hardly ever get anything anymore, its awesome.  I think it took a couple weeks before I saw a difference but it was great!

I only use it once a day ( at night) and it took me about a month to see results.

Thanks ladies!!

I'm only using it at night as well.  I was warned that twice a day could be too drying!!  My skin has been great until the past couple of months and then all of a sudden I have been breaking out - it just rotates from forehead, to chin to jawline.  I am really hoping this helps me so its nice to hear the positive feedback!!

Didn't really work for me...but it does for lots of people. I have stupid skin, so don't listen to me! Just beware of scaly skin...too much can burn you!
