Neutrogena Visibly Clear Light Therapy Targeted Acne Spot Treatment

This little pen is so easy and simple to use and can be taken anywhere. I have used it on:1. Under the skin, getting ready to surface spots2. Already appeared pus filled spots3. Spots that I have naughtily popped4. Blemishes that resulted from me popping my spotsIt's fair to say I have applied it to a range of settings and I am prone to getting spots. Does it work? Yes, I have to say the next day after using it, my spots/blemishes would be less red and angry looking. It doesn't cause any reactions to my skin. You do have to be careful not to apply too much pressure otherwise you'll end up leaving a red line indented where the pen was. I do feel very Harry Potter with this thing glowing in my hand, and it is a pretty cool looking little device. Battery wise, it was great one came included so I could get started right away. With x2 daily treatments, the battery lasted probably 3 weeks? I haven't been able to use this product to its full potential. Post morning wash and post night wash are when I use it, because you can't use it over makeup obvs and the pen should be used on clean skin. Having said that it has helped to reduce the redness of my spots/surrounding skin which is great!Cleaning wise... I wish you could wash it in soapy water, just because you're using it on your face multiple times a day and if your face isn't squeaky clean you're going to be spreading bacteria and grime around your face. I give it a quick rub down with an antibacterial wipe for my own sanity, but it is one disadvantage if you like of the product.Overall, it does do what it says on the tin and helps to reduce pesky spot appearances and it's a pretty cool device to use- I'd recommend it!

I can recommend this to people who already know that their skin responds to blue light therapy. As to how quickly it works, it depends on what you start with and what you are dealing with. I get a flare up of cystic winter neck acne from coats and scarfs. These flare ups dont respond to the topical treatments (and just come back), and so this is pretty much the only way to get at them for me. I will give you some examples of the spots and how this thing worked. 1) I had a particularly irritated under-the-skin spot that was stubborn for over 2 weeks and it started calming down after about 2 days. 2) I also had a mild spot near the surface that went away after 1 day. 3) I had a spot that was initially calmed, but then became irritated. The pen seemed to keep the swelling down and minimized the damage. After the swelling started up, it was under control after about 3-4 days of regular use.Pros: pretty much the only way to treat those awful spots that are generally not treatable using topical products. Inexpensive. Easy to use.Cons: Not as quick to work as the one at the dermatologist. 2 minutes per spot 3 times a day is quite time consuming. Battery lasts like 3 days and then you need to get another AAA battery. If there was a plug, that would be better but there isnt.

I was cynical about this product but it was half price so I gave it a go. I used it on painful, big, under-the-skin spots on my jawline in the evening. When I woke up the next morning the painful bumps were gone! I could barely believe it! The spots were still pink but the inflammation went down and with 2-3 more uses on them they were gone. This is an excellent tool and I highly recommend it!

Made some difference to redness with larger spots and completely cleared a couple of small ones. It came with a battery which lasted well. If you have a lot spots in multiple places i wouldn't recommend this as it would take too long. Overall works well but tricky to use in certain places such as between/around eyes. I would recommend this to a friend and quick delivery was a bonus.

Worked well for 3 months and seemed to have some effect on spots (not miraculous though), then it stopped working. Not sure how to return it as Amazon return window closed. Not worth money for quality of the product

It is such a shame that the battery ran out in 2 weeks. I don't even use it every day, but the battery ran out so quickly. The result of this pen is pretty decent. My spots did go down but it took some time.

Despite the battery issues which I know many have mentioned in reviews, this has really worked for me. The reduction in redness is amazing and it’s stopped spots going crazy. It’s particularly helped my cystic acne especially when it comes to scarring! They won’t disappear over night but this has made a huge difference. I’ve noticed some saying it’s hard to use 3 times a day, which I get if you’re not in a 9-5 job, but I just wake up earlier to do it in the morning, then when I get home and before going to bed. Will be purchasing recharging batteries though! (P.s the box came super damaged so FYI if you’re buying this as a gift)

After reading reviews I thought I would have to try it out myself. I suffer from really bad hormonal acne on my chin. It gets really bad and concealer is unable to hide it. I had a large spot on my chin with puss inside(sorry tmi) I hate picking my spots. I put this on it for the two mins it says and I kid you not the puss had vanished from the spot. It had shrunk in size, In those two mins. If a spot is itching I use it and it stops it as soon as I use this little miracle pen. I’ve had it for 3 weeks now and not had to change the battery’s like most people have. I use it three times a day when needed. I’ve noticed when it says you need new battery’s leave it for a few mins and it works again. Now just need a product to remove the redness where old spots have been
