I'm really shocked at the comments (and disappointed).  I've used Zeno happily for quite some time and it really does work.  My pimples disappear within a day. I have several friends and family members that use Zeno happily too.  Unfortunately, I have to admit that I have seen suspicious patterns...

What is Zeno?

Zeno is a dermatologist-recommended, battery-powered medical device that is used to treat individual pimples with heat therapy.  It is supposed to eliminate or significantly reduce the duration of pimples for those with mild to moderate inflammatory acne. That totally describes my complexion...

a beauty diva, into anti-aging creams

Like OMG!  This product is totally rockin!  Wish I had found it sooner.  Truly works.  Just use it on new pimples, like the directions say.  I zap my pimple and it is gone when I wake up.  Use it when the pimple first appears for best results.  The earlier you treat, the better the results.  Totally easy.  Totally cool (not hot on the skin).  Fits in my purse.  I take it everywhere.  A definite "splurge" that is worth every penny!  The pink one is my FAVORITE.  Matches my cell phone.  Charges like my cell phone.  I've got my confidence back, and my social life.  It is the first... read full review »

a beauty diva, keeping my skin clear, thinking about Botox, into anti-aging creams

My husband's big business dinner with the wives was approaching rapidly, and I was desperate. The Zeno completely got rid of the "volcano" that was about to erupt on my face!   I am forever grateful because it was just a mere spec on my face the next morning.  For once in my life, the "volcano" did not erupt and leave a scarring trail.  I was so pleased that I told all the wives about it at the dinner.  They were amazed too.  I just wish Zeno had been around when I was a teenager!  Better late than never I say!  Zeno  feels good on the skin (almost like a spa treatment).  It is the...

i work with people's skin. and i know this product works pretty well.
I want to say that this product doesn't work if people use Zeno without washing their face and don't wash their face after.
I know it's a very basic concept but i met a lot peopel who don't do that.
I wish company has another educational video about washing their face before and after.

The Zeno Acne Clearing Device is simply a handheld, portable electronic device which applies controlled heat directly to the pimple through a metal pad for 2.5 minutes. The Zeno website says that in two to three treatments, spread over 24 hours will clear up most pimples quickly.

I've had the Zeno for one day and have tried it on my pimple and have found that after the first treatment the large, fat pimple I had was significantly reduced in size. My second treatment, done four hours later reduced the pimple even further.

I have combination skin which gets very dry around under my eyes and is oily...

Not only is zeno so cute, but it actually worked quickly on my pimples.  Just zap and go.  That's all there is to it.  After 2 or 3 zaps spread out throughout a day or so, the pimple is completely gone in about a day or less.  It's that simple and so easy to use!  I've been using it for about 9 months  and basically it has worked on most of my pimples, easily over about 90%.  That's better than anything else on the market for pimples and the best part is there is no scarring.  I just saw a new zeno model on the internet for about $89.  I am so buying that one next to put in my... read full review »

I was skeptical, but with the guarantee, felt I couldn't lose. I don't get that many pimples, but when I do, they're huge and obvious. An enormous pimple showed up right before a series of meetings, and I was desperate. The Zeno worked fast, easily, and with no visible side effects. For once in my life, the enormous pimple subsided quickly and quietly. There was visble difference within 24 hours as they claimed, and the pimple was entirely gone within 2 days - that's pretty much unheard of for me. I'm sold.

I am going through the worst case of adult acne and pimples ever!

During a certain time of the month, I get this huge pimples and I saw this product in Sephora.  The sales girl swore by it and even though it was really pricey, I thought it was worth a shot.

 It takes a couple of zaps for it to work but it seems to make the pimple go away faster.  It does leave some serious marks on the face, so only use it at night right before bed.

Cons:  pricey and only works on big pimples that are underneath the skin.

i have to echo david jang's review.  the zeno really does work very well and very fast, about a day.  it does take some time to learn though.  it is not like other acne products on the market.  yes, please remember to wash your face every day too.  zeno is not a facial cleanser, but an effective spot treatment for pimples.   this is truly a first class product, but you have to follow the directions and wash your face daily.  to learn how to use the zeno for what works best for you, give it about a month.  at that point, you can still return it if necessary.  i bought mine at walgreens,...

very skin conscious, not impressed with this product

I bought this after reading rave reviews on another web site and have been horribly disappointed in it.  I've used it at least a dozen times on all types of acne and it never works.  It's over-rated, over-priced, and over-hyped.  Don't waste your money on this product!

I read both good & bad reviews about the Zeno before buying it, so I wasn't surprised when it didn't work, but I definitely was disappointed.  I was in the middle of a particularly bad break-out, brought upon by stress, and I was desparate to do anything to get it under control.  The whole idea of the Zeno is that if you catch the zits when they're starting (when you just have a little redness or a sore spot underneath the skin), it'll prevent them from coming to a head.  This did not work for me at all -- in fact, it seemed to make the zits even bigger & more inflamed once they came to a head... read full review »

I was so excited when I first read about this device is some fashion rag.  I don't break out often (usually just around that time of the month a little), but it drives me crazy when I do. 

I bought this as soon as it was available and sat intently in front of the mirror obsessing over my skin and I feel like it just irritated my pimple more than anything.  I never once saw one go away overnight while using this thing.  I felt stupid just sitting there on the sink, staring in the mirror, holding this hot object to my face and my boyfriend would laugh at me and tell me my skin was beautiful and...

I have owned a zeno, and I am still unsure as to whether or not it works. It is possible that that is because, I don't have serious acne. I have a skin type where I usually only get the occasional pimple, but occasionally I'll have a few right next to each other or one that lasts and lasts, so I figured if this could help make these pimples go away faster...that it would be worth it. The problem is...it didn't make them go away faster. In fact I'm not even sure it did anything other than just make my skin hot and uncomfortable. I mean the concept for this thing sounded legitimate, because, as some...
