Editorial Review: Amazon.com Product Description: Zeno is a hand-held battery-operated device designed with a tip that heats to a pre-set temperature. The biocompatible tip is designed for direct contact with a blemish on the skin. Once in contact with a blemish, the tip will transfer heat into the follicle. An internal PID controller chip continually modulates the temperature to a fixed range even under different skin and circulation conditions by adjusting the flow of energy to match precisely the heat absorption of the individual user. Zeno’s microprocessor adapts not only to your individual skin type but also to the heat absorption characteristics of the location of the pimple. Your Zeno adapts to you! An integral digital timer controls the treatment time. The level of heat does not cause skin damage.
Specifically, Zeno stimulates a heat-shock response in p. acnes, the bacteria causing at least 90% of all acne blemishes. Heat shock proteins, activated by bacterial cells under heat stress, cause the self-destruction of p. acnes within the lesion, reducing inflammation and allowing the skin to return to a healthy state. What is Zeno? Zeno is a handheld, portable electronic medical device that is clinically proven to make pimples disappear fast. In fact, for treating acne pimples, it's the most scientifically advanced and effective device available without a prescription. What does it do? Zeno applies a precisely controlled heat dose directly to the pimple through a metal pad. One treatment lasts 2½ minutes. Two to three treatments spread over 24 hours clear up most pimples quickly. It's that simple. How does it work? Pimples occur when excess skin oil and flaking skin plug the opening of a hair follicle and create the ideal environment for acne bacteria to grow. Precisely controlled heat applied for a specific period of time causes the bacteria to self-destruct. When the bacteria die, the pimple goes away. How many treatments does it take? Two to three 2½-minute treatments spread over 24 hours are sufficient for most pimples. Often, only one treatment is needed. Who should use Zeno? Zeno is for people with mild to moderate inflammatory acne. If in doubt, ask your doctor. When should Zeno be used? Use Zeno at the first sign of a pimple. It works best when used on a pimple in the early stages of development. Also, the sooner pimples are cleared up, the less chance they have to leave scars. How does Zeno compare with topical or oral treatments? Zeno can clear up a pimple in just hours. Most other medications can take days or even weeks to work. What's more, other than slight, temporary skin redness, Zeno has none of the side effects described by most topical or oral medications. Is Zeno safe and painless? Patients included in our clinical trials experienced little reaction to the low-level heat. Other than some temporary skin redness following a treatment cycle, no other adverse side effects were reported. But should you experience any discomfort when using Zeno, discontinue use and consult your skin care professional. Is Zeno all I need for acne? Zeno does not replace good skin hygiene or a doctor's care. It is designed to treat mild to moderate inflammatory acne. Your doctor may recommend other therapies, depending on the severity of your acne. Follow your doctor's advice and use Zeno for the occasional pimple. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Hard to tellIt's hard to tell if this is a good product, and ordinarily I wouldn't write a review if I wasn't sure. But I want to offer a caveat... I have given it the benefit of the doubt with my three stars, but here's the problem that I've found: When you read the instructions, they give you a list of the kind of pimples it DOESN'T work on. I am still struggling to figure out what kind are left. So far I seem to have had one that qualified, and yes, it may have sped things up a bit. Maybe..... Rating:  - It Really WorksWhen it comes to treating and managing acne, I have tried most everything, usually being disappointed. This is the first product I have used that really works. I took a risk, as the product is not inexpensive, but I am more than satisfied with the results. Rating: - Love itI was lucky to have been listening to the radio when I heard a Zeno commercial. I say lucky because I have never heard or seen a commercial for this product before or since. I am not sure how the company is getting the word out. From what I gather the product has been on the market for over two years. In any event, Zeno works just as advertised. As soon as I feel the signs of a pimple forming, I heat up the area with my Zeno. In about two to three treatments, the pimple disappears. ... Read More Rating:  - Not 100%, but well worth itOK. Is it perfect? No. Does it get rid of every pimple? No. But it is absolutely the best thing out there for those monsters under the skin. Get to it early, maybe double up on the treatments and continue good hygiene, and it will go away, or be significantly reduced in size and pain. This has been an issue for me for years, and I now think it can be managed. Rating: - Unbelievable!This thing actually works. I had my doubts, but I figured a trip to the dermatologist would cost me the same amount as the zeno, plus whatever meds he prescribed; so I gave it a shot. Yes, 2 1/2 minutes is a long time to sit while you heat up each blemish, but it beats the week of waiting for the blemish to come to the surface and then the month (or 2) of skin discoloration afterwards. Do it while watching tv, and the time flies. I'm happy with mine and wish I had known about the zeno months ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
