More information

The Zeno works by applying heat to the affected area through a metal pad. When heat is applied for 2-3 minutes, it forces the acne-causing bacteria to die. In order to kill all the bacteria, it's recommended that the Zeno be used 2 to 3 times for 2 to 3 minutes within a 24 hour period of first seeing the inflammation.

Features

  • Provides constant heat to the affected area through a controller, which reacts to your skin's circulation
  • Treatment tips last a limited amount of time
  • Replacement treatment tips are available
  • Battery life: takes 6 hours to charge fully - recommended that it stays charged when not in use
  • Battery life indicator on the Zeno
  • Comes with 90 replacement tips, more tips can be purchased separately for ~$30

I would recommend Zeno to anyone who has mild to moderate acne. It works great on those inopportune times that zits can and will pop up (day before a big presentation) Before I purchased my Zeno I went to their website...www.myzeno.com and it was a wealth of knowledge. I definitely knew what I was getting and my Zeno exceeded my expectations.

Thanks to this review, I just ordered one from Drugstore.com. Note, there are two models on their website.
