Ziiiip, zaaap, poooof! Be gone!! There aren't too many things more annoying than a pimple. I am sure that most of you have had to deal with a lovely break out right before an important event - a hot date, a graduation, a big presentation at work. Don't you love that panicked feeling? I know I've been there once or twice!
Lately, I have been able to keep active break outs at bay, save for a few hormonal crop ups every now and then. A few days ago, however, a nice pimple reared its ugly head...on my chin! This time, instead of breaking out in a cold sweat and screaming "why me?!" into my mirror, I took a deep breath and reached over for my Zeno Hot Spot. Since this device is touted to be the "#1" for blemish clearing, I figured there was no downside to giving this baby a try!
So how does the Hot Spot work?
The Hot Spot, aptly named, uses thermal technology to clear away blemish-causing bacteria. There is no pain involved in the treatment, and all it takes is a short 2.5 minutes to complete.
Zeno states that an hour after treatment, there should be noticeable blemish clearing, and that within 24 hours of using the device 90% of blemishes treated should be gone. The device is not intended to be used to treat cystic acne, blackheads, and whiteheads.
My experience with the Hot Spot was pretty positive. I treated my pimple as I was getting ready for bed, and save for a minimal amount of redness around the blemish right after treatment (which is completely normal), the pimple was noticeably and significantly reduced by the next morning. I was pleasantly surprised. Using the system was a breeze and was totally comfortable. When using the Hot Spot, you do feel the heat against your skin, but the temperature does not get very high. I like that the system is very compact and fits perfectly in the hand. The one thing that was a bit frustrating, however, was that I found the "on button" to be very sensitive. I inadvertently hit the button a few seconds before the device's sensor was properly placed on my blemish. I think that maybe with more use I will be more comfortable with the logistics!
