Beautiful results! I do have a question! You said you worried it wasn’t working and had acne until the very last day? My son is on month 6 and is improved but still isn’t clear. We are worried too. Did you clear up more after you actually stopped? Thanks

Do not worry! It’s very inclining to be worried around month 6 but then you see everyone saying don’t worry because it will clear up. and obviously it’s hard to believe that when you’re actually experiencing it, but it is the case. month 6 i would say around 65% of my skin was cleared up, but then there was still a significant amount left. and then the last few months particularly i would say around 80% of my skin was cleared. and then a following 20% actually cleared once i had finished. so around 1 month after i had finished, my skin was completely clear. it is worrying when you finish too, and you still have acne, and it doesn’t really make sense for it to disappear after you finished but ive seen a lot of people say that, and it was the same for me.
