There are many products available for sale to treat acne. Most are either creams or lotions you apply to your skin or pills that you take internally. But there are also devices to treat acne. One such device is called Zeno. Zeno applies controlled heat to the skin. The heat is said to kill the bacteria that causes pimples and zits - zapping them so they clear up. You can purchase Zeno without a prescription.

Zeno acne treatments
Zeno is portable, hand-held and rechargeable to treat acne. The device consists of a metal pad. When you use Zeno, first clean the pad. Then the pad is heated, and applied directly to the pimple. A typical Zeno acne treatment lasts about 2 to 3 minutes. Sometimes you use the product once a day, sometimes it is used several times a day. Zeno is designed for use by people with mild to moderate acne. For severe acne, you should see a dermatologist.

Cost of Zeno
If you want to purchase Zeno, the cost ranges from $120 to $200. There is also a mini Zeno which costs under $100. The treatment tips will need to be replaced after a number of uses. The tips can be purchased also. They generally cost under 50 cents per tip.
The makers of Zeno say that the controlled heat kills the bacteria that causes acne. It should be used as soon as a pimple or blemish erupts. Controlling pimples and zits before they spread can be helpful in preventing acne scars. If you use Zeno, avoid areas that are sensitive such as the skin around the eyes. It can be a good idea to test the product on a patch of skin on your forearm before using it on your face. Also, do not overuse the product, as this can result in burns. Avoid using with other acne treatment products.

After using Zeno, there may be some redness. If you feel discomfort, you should stop using the product right away and consult a professional. You should not use Zeno if you are sensitive to heat. It is important to avoid burns when using any product that involves heat. You will also need to continue to take good care of your skin, with a thorough cleansing routine, and a healthy diet. You also need to avoid picking or irritating the pimple or blemish while it heals.
