My daughter has moderate cystic acne on her lower face and occasional breakouts on her forehead and around her nose. She has tried everything and we were so hopeful that AviClear would be the solution we were looking for. After undergoing 3 treatments which were very painful for her (she does not have a high threshold for pain), and waiting 3 months after - we are sad to say that this didn't work. She is still consistently getting breakouts and has not noticed any difference. I know that this treatment might be great for some, I feel like this was a complete waste of money for us. As this was a very new procedure (we were among the first in this office to sign up), I wish now that we had waited to read more about it and see more results. However my daughter was so eager to begin and hoped for a great outcome. This review in no way reflects the provider - they have been nothing but wonderful. However I want to caution others that this may not be the "end-all be-all" answer they are looking for and at $3,000, it's quite a hefty investment.
