Hi, I would start by just applying the zz at night. It can be very drying, so initially, less is more. Wash your face before you go to bed and leave it damp - this helps the zz to be spread evenly. Take a little zz on your finger and smooth it over all you face. Just use a small amount. It should be...

Hi Walter - well, I haven't used the Isotrex Gel on my cheeks (where I have the rosacea) but I have used it on my nose and forehead and it has really helped to unclog pores and promote smooth skin. I always had really horrible blackheads all over my nose but now, after only 4 weeks use, they've prac...

Blocked pores
Hi everyone - I've been using the DS products since last June and have had very very good results - thanks to Walter and all. I just wanted to share some info with you that might be helpful. I have always had enlarged, blocked pores on my nose (ever since I can remember and definitely for years befo...

Hi Anja, I've been using the zz since June this year. I too have quite dry skin (30 year old caucasian female) and suffered exactly like you. 5 months on, I have to say, my skin is still quite dry and can occasionally look crepey but I find if I ease off the zz for a couple of days and make sure I m...

Hi Stephen, I did the test for demodex on my skin myself but didn't find any, however, since I've been using the zz cream my skin has improved dramatically anyway. I think it's worth trying the products regardless of whether you're able to find a doc who will test for demodex especially, as Walter r...

Hi Baybebubble, I started out with the xfml during the day, the zz at night and washed with the soap. However, my skin is so sensitive that i found the soap plus the zz made it WAY too dry to cope with so I stopped the soap. I also didn't get on with the xfml (seemed to make my face red) so stopped ...

Update
After using the products for 2.5 months, my skin is 10 times better. Thanks to all at DS. There have been ups and downs but on the whole the process was bearable and the end result certainly worth it. I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who posted and helped in times of need and also to say to a...

We're dreadful, as soon as things are going well, we stop posting!! Well done Baybeebubble for getting us talking again. My skin is definitely improving. I've had some really good days but it's still a bit up and down. The other day I saw so many dry wrinkles that I freaked and decided to used the z...

Hi - I'm not sure if this will be helpful to you, perhaps one of the more experienced users will have more to say, but I found that I got a couple of painful, acne type, under the skin lumps which I'd never had before after about three weeks. I cut down on the amount of zz I was using, just a little...

Hi Robbin, Emily and all - I've been using the zz for about a month now and I find that the little whiteheads that appear, disappear more quickly if you do pop them and then apply the zz (better to do it at night so you're not tempted to fiddle with them during the day). I occasionally get some that...
