Question Posted Saturday November 18 2006, 11:55 pm
15/f. it is true that if i start using proactive and then stop that my acne will come back again and worse then before? I've also heard that it works for about 3 weeks then stops working...is this true?

It may be possible that it will come back, though, because your skin begins to depend on what the proactive does for it. Just make sure you're careful with your skin once you stop, and you should be alright. =D [ XkittyOkatX's advice column | Ask XkittyOkatX A Question ]

She has really bad breakouts and since she started using Proactive it's completely gone away. She's been using it for about 3 months now so it definitely still works. As for it coming back worse, I dont think that's possible. [ QueenVicki's advice column | Ask QueenVicki A Question ]

i used it before.. it works really good. it doesnt stop working.. but if your skin is clear.. it doesnt give you a reason to stop using it.
i think people overreact with acne coming back and getting worse
because you would be used to an almost clear face... then to acne popping up again.
