Was a bit hesitant to use this because of the microneedles. But when the "perfect time" came during the time of the month, I realized how helpful it was in speeding up the healing process for my big hormonal zit on my chin. After using just 3 of them, the pimple already came to a head. I began using a diff pimple patch at this stage already. But in 5 days, the area was already flat. Glad I got this =)
