Cons:
if you do multiple treatments in one setting, it can be time consuming. the instructions say to use it "as soon as you feel a pimple coming on" and i've done that plenty of times and the pimple just got bigger instead of going away...
too much money, too little effect.

Pros:
Small
Cons:
have to wait for it to begin, have to press it for a while
IT DID LEAVE ME A hyperpigmentation SCAR...but my skin scars easily.
I had two pimples. I used zeno on one and not the other. Yes, the former pimple subsided quicker compared to the latter. BUT...it left a bigger and redder hyper-pigmentation mark. My conclusion is that if you have sensitive skin that gets red marks easily after pimples are gone you should probably stay away from zeno or use it when you feel a pimple coming and not on existing pimples or spots that have reoccuring pimples. Overall this technology is under-impressive and there are better spot heat spot treatment now (a new one came out that requires only a 2 second heat i think it's called thermaclear or something)

Pros:
small and easy to carry everywhere. 30 days money back is really convininent, you will need that option!
Cons:
device and treatements are expensive.
adantages : I've used zeno for 1 month. it didn't make my acne worse, but there was no magic results. the pimples became smaller and flat after you used it, but in few minutes they look the same as they did before the treatement. the redness stays for only few minutes.
disadvantages: it is ideal if you have 1 or 2 pimples, but if you have more than that, the treatements get expensive($100 a month)
it's very time consuming(2 and a half minutes for each pimple 3 times a day), it takes it forever to heat up and it needs to be charged after just 3 treatements, which is annoying.

Pros:
Gets the job done. Say so long to pimples!
Cons:
Not for white or black heads.
My boyfriend says my skin looks so much better after using zeno for just under 2 weeks. That was all I needed to hear! I recommend it to everyone. Pimples that seem to last weeks, plus scar, are now gone from yesterday and the day before.

Pros:
None
Cons:
I bought this as one of my last hopes before asking my Dr. for Acutane. It was inefective. Every pimple I used it on still matured as it would have even if I didn't use it.
Save your money, if you want to try something similar I also tried Thermaclear which has a permanent head that never needs replacing and treatment lasts like 3 seconds. You can get it at [link removed].

Pros:
None.
Cons:
You have to hold it to your face for the longest 2 1/2 minutes of your life just to recieve this huge red spot (somehow much larger than the head of this apparatus) that can take up to an hour or so to fade away.
I bought this item out of desperation bacause I have been getting cystic acne- out of nowhere-- since last summer. Although the products website said it doesn't work on cysts (or many other types of acne) I came across mixed reviews about the product on other websites from people who said it did and they loved it (definately wasn't this site because you folks pretty much dubbed it a piece of crap straight down the line). So I ignored the reviews here, went to walgreens to experience a very embarrasing 20 minute search with 3 different walgreens employees who were'nt quite sure what this thing was or where they kept them (like one of those humorous price check scenes in a comedy for something like adult underwear). Well got home, charged it for 6 hours, began treatment. . . didnt work. Hasn't work since on all varieties of acne. I wouldnt recommend this piece of crap to my worst enemy

Pros:
for those annoying pimples that pop up the night before something impotant-it works great
Cons:
can burn the skin near the mouth areas and is expensive
it works for the pimples above the skin. zeno does not work for severe acne types. it is not made for those type of pimples. ive learned that it doesnt make it better to press down harder on the pimple it makes it worse. it does work though on certain pimples i would recommend it for someone who gets regular breakouts during their period or when they are stressing out.
June 11, 2009
Pros:
Helps make the pain from cysts a little more tolerable. Helps flatten
*some* blemishes. Works best when you apply it to something you can feel forming.
Cons:
Price! Especially when you have to buy refill cartridges. Doesn't work on blemishes near the mouth for some reason. One of the blemishes I used it on left a huge indentation scar on the side of my face. Be careful!
I am not 100% sold on this yet. I will say it helps with the pain and I think it speeds up the healing time more than anything. I will reccommend it for people with blemishes that come to a head but not for people with cysts because of the scarring risk.
May 9, 2008
Pros:
it has helped dry out a few spots on my face which lead to quicker healing.
Cons:
not effective enough! also- if you don't catch the pimple at just the "right" time it can make your acne worse. i do not believe that enough time and research was put into this device.
not worth it. way too expensive for spotty results. too difficult to determine whether or not your zit will be helped by your zeno.
March 29, 2007
Pros:
NOTHING!!!!!
Cons:
Got my hopes up for nothing.
Doesn't work. I saw no difference. I used it as instructed. I sent it back.
Pros:
it helped some of my pimples but overall didn't really affect anything.
