1.0 out of 5 stars Smells bad and burns
Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2023
I was very excited to try this since I have a lot of acne scarring from chronic cystic acne but unfortunately it did not work for me. The first thing I noticed was how badly this smelled. To me it smelled like stale urine. The smell dissipated quickly enough so I figured it would be worth it if it meant finally having clear skin. It burned a little when I first applied it but I though that would probably pass. Within less than 5 minutes by face was bright red, hot, and swollen and only in the areas where I had applied the serum. I immediately washed off the remaining serum which hopefully has saved my skin from any lasting damage. I would not recommend.
