This product did work for me for a short period of time, but not for long. However, it seems to work well on occasions for my father.

I've been using the gel for about a yr now. It seems to be working pretty good. I still get an occasional breakout sometimes. I definitely like the gel better than the lotion. The lotion made my face feel extremely greasy.

I have used MetroGel for 2 years. I guess I feel lucky, in that I only have some spider veins on my nose and cheeks. I still have the occasional breakout, but it's usually at that time of the month when hormones are running rampant. I'm sticking with it.

Hey everyone, I've tried just about everything there ever was, all the over counter stuff never really worked for me. I just tried Proactiv, that didn't work for me at all then I tried Metro Gel omg, it was the best! I didn't have to wear makeup at all, it is so great you have no idea!

I have been prescribed metro gel and metro lotion with intermittent oral antibiotics for over 5 years now. At first I was very happy with the results, but I seem to have become resistant to these treatments. I'm going to try Proactiv, and see if it works.
