Proactiv

Proactiv is an acne management system that helps individuals achieve and maintain a blemish free complexion. Proactiv users follow the simple 3-step regimen on a twice daily basis. The renewing cleanser (step 1), revitalizing toner (step 2), and repairing lotion (step 3) work in harmony to help users attain clear, acne-free skin.

Developed by Dr. Katie P. Rodan, M.D. and Dr. Kathy Fields, M.D. as a result of the acne with which they both dealt as teens and adults, Proactiv is a world leader in acne treatment. Doctors Rodan and Fields chose to advertise the product through infomercials to personalize the product.

Acne does not just develop and emerge overnight but takes several days to form. Treating each blemish as it appears is not an effective system to treat and prevent acne. The Proactiv system works proactively to both treat and prevent breakouts by inhibiting the growth of the bacteria that causes acne.

Proactiv offers 5 different daily essentials kits, and each kit contains the 3-step renewing, revitalizing, and repairing system. Oil-free moisture with SPF 15, daily oil control, and a Proactiv travel kit are also available for purchase. Individuals can determine which Proactiv essentials kit is right for them based on their skincare needs.

There are other acne products on the market that claim to be as good as or better than the Proactiv system, such as Acne Complex and AcneFree. Neutrogena acne products, Acnomel Acne Cream, Exposed Acne Treatment System, and Acne Zeno are also acne treatments that are currently on the market.

Proactiv is recommended by dermatologists, and most individuals can expect to see results within 4-8 weeks. If Proactiv does not meet the individual’s needs and they are unsatisfied with the product, Proactiv does offer a 60-day money back guarantee. Proactiv is designed to last approximately 60 days when used on a twice-daily basis as recommended.
