this product does what it offers! though it took around 3 days to see a clearer face, it still works! it stopped my breakouts, and also cleared up my light/medium acne scarring. all of my light acne scarring is gonee! and the dark ones, turned into light ones! so im hoping that those light ones will turn into none! :D The only disappointment is that it's pretty pricy for such a small tube:( i definetly recommend this product b/c it DOES get rid of acne scarring, and reduces those big pimples smaller over night. everyday i woke up, i said wow, this stuff is amazing! i always look forward to waking up the next day and seeing what my face looks like. works fast, but there is a sting but it WORKS! you just need some time with it.
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.

This gel actually works!!. The first time I got this product I was praying that this would work, because it seemed like nothing else would. The morning I got it, I went home and washed my face with my Neutrogena scrubs and automatically put this gel on. Later the night I took a look at my problem zit and it looked so much better! The redness died down and didn't hurt as much. The next morning I looked at it, and it was almost completely gone! I used it that night again and the next morning it was hardly there. I used it another day or so and the scar/mark went away! I was so thankful for this gel because Christmas was 3 days away when I got it!
Thank you Neutrogena, Yall saved me once again!!
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.

I got this product only hoping that my acne scars would fade, and it did so much more then expected. I get alot of acne on the sides of my face and forehead, and especially on the sides of my face i get really REALLY bad acne scars. It took a little while to spot a difference, maybe 2-3 weeks, but they fade to almost nothing after a little while. It's also great with shrinking size and redness of pimples overnight. Only reason its four stars is that 1 in 5 times it won't do anything to a pimple overnight, just make it bigger and redder. But otherwise then that it's great!
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.

I use the All-in-One Scrub with it. And I've noticed significantly less acne in just 24 hours. The dark marks also went away pretty quickly. I use it ALL the time. Especially the night before a date ;)
Side Note: I don't know why everyone thinks the dryness is so bad. That means that its working. Its supposed to draw out oils and dry out the pimple. That's how it goes away! I don't think its over-drying. I use a moisturizer afterwards, but you're supposed to. If you don't use a moisturizer, your skin tries to produce more oil, which causes more breakouts.
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.

This is the only product that fades my pesky dark marks. As a bonus, it prevents breakouts even in my most stressful times! The catch is that it is pretty expensive for such a small tube, it can take a while to dry, and I break out as soon as I stop using it. I use a good scrub in the shower, and then put this on my problem areas and VOILA! For some reason, this product is no longer available at my local grocery stores, and my face has been suffering the consequences:/ Make it a few bucks cheaper and more easily-accessible and I will give it 5 stars!
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.

I bought this product about a week ago because I had a few pimples and really bad acne scarring. I havn't had much experience with spot treatments, but this one worked great! It dried up all of my scars and acne and basically the top layer of my yucky skin peeled off and now i have a new layer of clear, brighter skin! I still have some minor blemishes but this greatly improved my skin in a time of need! Thanks Neutrogena!!
One thing that I don't like though is it is very pricey for a very small amount. But it works, so I guess it's worth it.
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.

I love this product! I have been using it for 4 days along with the Rapid Clear foaming face scrub and my acne is disappearing. My acne marks are slowly fading too! I have been fighting with acne since I was 11 and I am now 26. It has taken years for me to find the right combo to get rid of my problem and, this is it! I would not use it if you have dry skin though, it may dry you out too much. Or just use it once a day until your skin gets used to it. Thank you so much Neutrogena! Never take this product off the market, please!
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.

Tried everything out there and was hesitant to try BC its a little pricey. Been two Weeks and couldn't be happier. Im using another skin care regimen but needed help with acne scars and the occasional flare up. Got it!! I can already see a huge difference in my old scars and this helps with the occasional pimple that pops up out of no where. I use it at least 3xs a day and don't think I could live with out it. totally worth the price and I will keep using it firefly even after all my marks go away. :-) thanks neutrogena!!!
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.

I was looking for something to replace the Clear Pore treatment that has disappeared from Neutrogena's shelvs, this isn't it. Burns my eyes and nose when I put it on, and stings on my skin - definitely a "spot treatment" instead of an overall treatment. I did use is just as a spot treatment after the first try, and that seems to perform well, and doesn't leave the whte crust that the current version (white) of "on the spot" does, so I may continue to use it for that if I don't find something better.
Bottom LineNo, I do not recommend this product.

I have horrible acne along my neck and jawline. I get huge, hard pimples that never come to a head. I bought this gel not thinking it would really work but willing to give anything a try because I was tired of it taking months for these pimples to go away. After 1 day of using this product the pimple shrunk in size. It also got rid of some smaller pimples along my chin. After 3 days, you can hardly tell I had acne on my chin at all. This stuff is amazing. I wish I had been using it all of my life.
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.

I've had skin problems a large part of my life and had to deal with post acne marks for a while. This product is a serious miracle worker. Within A DAY I saw HUGE improvements on my face, this was just applying it once a day! I've only been using this product for a couple of weeks and fell in love with it. I suggest this to anyone with post acne marks, it's an excellent product for a great price!
Thank you Neutrogena for making great AND affordable products!
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.

I started having bad acne a few months ago and nothing i tried seemed to be doing the job. My skin was to the point where it was painful to touch. I trird this, it didn't work right away but i did see a slight change in the beginning. After useing this stuff twice a day, it's about 2 months later and my face is almost completly cleared up. I'm barely having any break outs anymore. I am continueing to use this product, best find i've found in a long time.
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.

I'm a 26/F who didn't start getting bad breakouts until my 20's. I've used this for a year or 2 now and at least for me it keeps my pimples from getting too big but that's pretty much it. My pimples don't go away any faster than when I'm not using it and it certainly does not help with post acne marks. I've stopped using it because it was not worth me spending 10 bucks every 2-3 weeks on the small tube.
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.

I've only been using this for about a week and only at night before bed and i've noticed a huge difference already with my scars fading. You can feel it working on your skin after you apply it. I just apply it to my finger tip and apply a very thin layer on post marks and a little dab on pimples. Only a little bit of product is needed. They are honestly smaller and lighter in 8 hours. Try this product!
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.

Headline says it all, really. It worked okay I think for perhaps the first couple weeks, but never really did the "whole" job at fully clearing away marks. I'd say that this *might* work well for someone who gets a pimple once in a blue moon, whatever that really means, but just rarely gets pimples. I have low-to-moderate acne and I think benzoyl peroxide works better for marks than this stuff.
Bottom LineNo, I do not recommend this product.

Although it's kinda expensive, you can't argue with results. The only downside is that the product did cause some dry patches on my face at first, but my skin got used to it and is fine now. But the product got rid of my acne, fast, and has been fading marks of previous acne as well. I think it works really well, esp. with a Neutrogena cleanser like the redness-soothing cream cleanser.
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.

I have normal skin (sometimes a little dry in the winter) I've never had a big problem with acne, but once in awhile I will breakout. (usually due to stress or my period) When this happens I dab some Neutrogena Rapid Clear on the affected area. The next morning I wake up, go into the bathroom to wash my face and the zits are gone! I love this product and would recommend it to anyone!
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.

I got this product because I had a soar pimple coming in. It was a bit expensive but i like neutrogena so i bought it anyways. It did help a little bit and showed improvement. but it was not a "miracle worker" like others have said. ive been using this product for about a month now. it does dry out my skin some. but i do still sort of like it.
Bottom LineNo, I do not recommend this product.

I've been using this product for about 2 weeks already and so far it's okay. I have acne marks on my cheeks and one positive thing I can say about this is that my marks are actually fading. It's slowly doing its job. As for fighting pimples, I haven't seen any results on mine. But, it still passes since it's doing one part of its job.
Bottom LineYes, I recommend this product.
