For Acne "I've been using the Stieva-A 0.25 mg for 4 weeks. In the first 2 weeks, my acne cleared up for about 2 days, but now it's come back again, and I'm left with those awful red dots and pigmentation. I recently just got the higher dosage of the cream, so I'm praying it works!!!"

For Acne "Been using it for 2 months. Acne cleared up. Been having the occasional painful cyst(s), though. Skin burns and stings quite a lot, and moisturizer is a lifesaver. My skin has been so dry! It's peeling and flaking, and no matter how much moisturizer I use, it stays dry. I've even tried Vaseline, which is a big no-no for acne-prone skin. It's currently one of the only products that don't sting as much and provide the needed moisture."

For Acne "This cream is absolutely awful!!! Just a thin covering made my the skin on my whole face peel off more than 6 times, and it’s still doing it one week later!!!"

For Acne "Before trying this product, I honestly lost all hope, I tried everything. Then my doctor prescribed me Stieva-A, and after about a month, my skin instantly cleared up. I couldn’t believe it actually worked for me. It’s even helped to slowly fade my acne scars, my face hasn’t felt this smooth in a while. Also, a bonus is when I apply makeup now, it’s so smooth. I just got a second refill on this product because I love it so much and want to use it for a year and see how much it can help my scars fade. Also, a little bit goes a long way, which is nice!"
