Tanda Zap Homedics Acne Spot Treatment Device

I was skeptical about this but it does actually work, you just have to use it more than once on a spot e.g. twice a day until it's gone down. The downside of this is that it has a limited number of uses it provides and it's a HUGE battery drain. After only a few uses, you will need to replace at least one battery or more. I bought this when it was a reasonable price and I'm shocked to see it's now 10x the price at over £100 which is insane! For that money you're better off getting the foreo espada which is rechargable and cheaper.

This device is really useful for clearing smaller spots and helps heal bruise-like spots or cysts a lot faster when you use the device on them 2-3 times a day. I would strongly recommend purchasing re-chargeable batteries, as this will save you a lot of money. Another tip is to take off the top 'light lid' when you are not using the device and this prolongs the life of the batteries. I suffer from mild acne and skin picking, or dermatillomania on my face. This device helps me clear spots and then heal them quicker so i'm not tempted to pick, it also gives me a distraction as the device is actually on the area i'm tempted to pick.I would give it a higher scoring but my device did conk out after several months of use (which it does say on the website) but it has improved my skin and my disorder so i have just bought another one (i will recycle the old parts!). I hope this has been helpful

Bought it for my teenage son, good product as it does work, I suggest buying rechargeable batteries as this thing just eats them up. It doesn't do wonders but it did help my son on couple of occasions. As with everything this will not solve the problem on it's own as you need to adjust many things to reduce the acne. On the down side this is rather small so it takes very long to cover the many spots that typical acne sufferer has.

The first time I used this product it was amazing! Cleared up the area overnight and now it's a few days later (without using it) and nothing has come back. However, I only got to use it one time because the batteries died after, so went to put it new ones and a spring inside fell out and the light started rattling. Got it collected the next day but am going to order another one as results were so good. Stock up on triple A batteries tho.

This really works but it eat batteries! Duracell will only last three days and rechargeable energisers only last two. Real shame because combination of blue light and vibration manages to stop a spot in its tracks, especially those annoying hormonal boils that pop up in the middle of your face when you least expect them! Have resorted to using Poundland batteries to keep costs down but am conscious of harming the environment by throwing loads of batteries away!

I am still in two minds as to whether this helped or made them worse! It arrived with dead batteries so changed them and it lasted approx a week and a half using once or twice a day. Changed batteries again after this. I thought it helped at first but now I have come out in worse spots - but this could just be my skin and would have happened anyway....hard to know. Will have a break for a couple of weeks and see what happens then will try again and update!

I do like this and I do feel it works. It’s easy to use it comes with instructions. It takes batteries.They only down side is the batteries don’t last very long so stock up on batteries

A really good product for reducing spots before they come to the surface. However I gave it a 3 star rating because of the amount of batteries I have gone through! I'd say 3 x AAA batteries it requires lasts for less 10 mins of usage, not good if you have a lot of problem areas!
