Zeno Mini is known as a hand-held battery-operated unit specially designed with a tip that heats to a pre-set temperature. The biocompatible tip is specially designed for direct contact with a blemish to the skin color. When close to a blemish, the tip will transfer high temperature into the follicle. An internal PID controller chip continually modulates the temperature to some fixed range even below distinctive skin tone and circulates conditions by adjusting the flow of power to match precisely the high temperature absorption on the person user.
Zeno’s microprocessor adapts not only for your individual skin color type but also towards heat up absorption characteristics of this location of this pimple. Your Zeno adapts to you! An integral digital timer controls the medication time. The degree of heat does not cause dermis injury.
Especially, Zeno Mini stimulates a heat-shock response in p. acnes, the bacteria causing at least 90% of all bad acne blemishes. Warm up shock proteins, activated by bacterial cells beneath warm up stress, bring about the self-destruction of acne within the lesion, lowering inflammation and allowing the dermis to return to a healthful state.
Zeno applies a precisely controlled heat up dose directly towards pimple as a result of a metal pad. An individual medication lasts 2½ minutes. Two to 3 cures spread more than 24 several hours clear up most zits speedily. It’s that uncomplicated.
Acne occur when excess skin oil and flaking skin plug the opening of your hair follicle and develop the ideal surroundings for bad acne bacteria to grow. Precisely controlled temperature applied for a certain period of time causes the bacteria to self-destruct. When the microbes die, the pimple goes away, thus your acne care is complete.
Now there’s a totally different way to fight pimples: Zeno Mini. Perfect for your pocket or purse, Zeno Mini helps most pimples improve in 24 to 48 hours! Zeno Mini uses ClearPoint technology – precisely controlled, low-level heat that kills acne bacteria. Each treatment takes just two and a half minutes and most pimples clear up with just two to three treatments. Zeno Mini is clinically proven and cleared by the FDA. Zeno Mini includes two AAA batteries and one 45-count treatment tip. One-year manufacturer warranty. more info
Works ok, but battery dies fast!

I had already been using acne creams every day, so keep that in mind. It seemed to work best for me on either very small red pimples, or the ones where you feel a little bump and maybe some soreness (the kind that usually turn into huge, painful pimples), but nothing is really visible yet. If you wake up with a big pimple, don’t get your hopes up. It’s also very time consuming so if you have more than a few pimples, you’ll be sitting there all day with this thing. And it didn’t make the pimples completely disappear as quickly as I had hoped, but it did make them fade, not get as big, or disappear faster. So overall I would say it’s a decent weapon to have in your arsenal. My biggest complaint is that the batteries die after about 4 or 5 uses! What the hell is that about? So I’m going to try rechargeable batteries to see if that’s any better.
Disappointing battery life!!

While the mini seems to help speed up the healing of spots, the battery life is awful! Usually I’m only able to use it 2 or 3 times before it starts giving me the signal of low battery life.

Charging >$20 per new treatment tip is outrageous. Forty-five treatments is an arbitrary value set to continue profiting from the end-user. The customer service is awful too. Don’t give them your business.
Not for REALLY BAD acne
However, like I said, I might as well have given the Zeno mini a shot. I have been using it off and on for the past month and a half. I can honestly say that it does help to reduce SOME acne, like little sweat pimples and fresher pimples. However, it does not work well on bigger pimples or old pimples….but the instructions warned me that it would not work on older pimples. It also does not work on blemishes, new or old. Although it does not help on many of these things, I actually HAVE found some good use for it that DOES work. Whenever I get a really big pimple, the ones with the nasty white puss, I can put the Zeno mini on it to soften the pimple so that it is easier to pop and has less of a blemish afterwards. OR I can pop a pimple and then use the Zeno mini to “cauterize” the open skin shut, making it so that the pimple is not open and waiting for more bacteria to come in AND so that it heals a little quicker….yes, closing it shut (for me) helps it to clear a little quicker and leaves a blemish for a shorter amount of time than if I did not use the Zeno mini. Some bad things about the Zeno mini…it left really bad red marks on certain parts of my face that are sensitive, such as the area between my upper lip and my nose. It usually took a longer time to get rid of the redness than on any other part of my face. And one more thing….I dont know if it is because of my overly sensitive skin or what, but I did tend to break out a little more around the areas that I used the Zeno mini but not break out in the actual spots that I used it. Kinda weird, I know. But if you want to burn your skin and get REAL results….for those who have BAD ACNE like me….just go for the laser treatment. The Zeno mini burns on your skin and so does the laser, but apparently the laser does much more work. For those who dont have such bad acne issues, I would say try the Zeno mini first because it does SOMEWHAT work….at least it works better than 95% of the crap you would find on a shelf at your everyday grocery store (acne washes and such…eww…skip em’)

Well, like the title says, it’s not for REALLY BAD acne. Yes, I was warned by the instructions that came with the Zeno mini that it most likey would not clear up bad acne, but I wanted to give it a shot anyway, just in case. Truth is, I have had REALLY BAD acne for over ten years and most products do not help at all. Products that HAVE somewhat worked are Proactive and DEFENITLY accutane
Zeno Does the Job

This product is perfect for carrying in my purse or for my husband to carry in a shirt or pant pocket. It is just as effective as the original Zeno. That is pretty amazing considering the size difference. Use it just like the original Zeno and you will get the same results. I recommend this product. Use the one that fits your needs and or space requirements and you won’t be disappointed.

I never had acne until my junior year of high school due to stress and not eating properly. I was able to treat that acne with proactive. This worked until my 2nd year in college. My skin seemed to have gotten use to the product. I was prescribed Differin 0.1 gel. It made my acne horrible for a short period but then cleared up most of it. However, my skin continued to break out more and more after time. In an attempt to clear my skin I tried everything and the result was dry/red skin all the time. I purchased the 39.99 zeno online that contained about 80 treatments and was amazed! It killed the acne and I barely have to wash my face now. My skin looks healthy clear and youthful. It is worth every penny!! My friends and family can see the results and I LOVE not having to wear makeup. It is so freeing!
F.Y.I. I purchased the original Zeno from Walgreens twice and both would not charge. Apparently, the internal battery can go bad after it has been sitting on the shelf for some time. So I purchased the Zeno Mini. It takes two triple A batteries and is very compact.
It Really works..amazing
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Ive had this for a month and used it a few times, and it really works !!
My ONLY complaint is that the battery life is VERY short. After you use it5-8 times you have to change the AAA batteries ..I will be investing in rechargeable AAA batteries immedtiately!!
Works! no battery problems when I followed the directions.

I own the regular Zeno, but bought the Zeno Mini for my husban. It works just as well as the regular model with full pimple resolution within about 12-24 hours. Unfortunately, most people (including my husband) don’t like to take the time to read the directions, but you really need to with this one as you are supposed to take the batteries out when not in use for optimal battery performance. This was a great purchase for my husband (he actually wanted one) as I no longer have to share mine, plus he is the type that needs regular batteries anyways (he is very forgetful when it coms to charging.
Zeno mini doesn’t work
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
This product didn’t work for me at all. I used it three times or so and each time it made the pimple worse, even if I used it at a very early stage. Most of my pimples are occasional and due to clogged pores, so maybe it’s just the wrong sort of acne. In any case, this product was no good for me.

I gave this to my teenage daughter to try out. She was quite excited about the product and felt that it helped her to clear her skin more rapidly than normal. It took a little more effort and patience than she would have liked, but overall she is pleased and has recommended it to her friends.
Not worth it, but your results may vary
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
The on/off button (which must be depressed for several seconds at certain points during the use of the product) occasionally ‘folds’ to one side, rendering this product virtually unusable. Be careful with how you depress the button.
Other than that, the product is easy to use. As per the instructions, using this product at the first sign of an outbreak helps. Otherwise, it is of little use. The timeframe of use for each application (150 seconds) would be quickly add up if if were used numerous times in one day.
I didn’t see enough effectiveness from this product to warrant a recommendation to purchase it at its selling price.
for long battery life, don’t store batteries in the mini
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
For long battery life, do not store your batteries in the zeno mini. I mistakenly forgot to to take mine out when not in use and they did not last as long as I expected. Once I took the batteries out and replaced them when I used the product the battery life was great. I should have read the directions first. It was right there in black and white. I own the regular rechargeable zeno and I absolutely love it!! I bought the zeno mini due to my job in healthcare that requires travel. I am very happy with my zeno’s. It does not “instantly” zap” you pimple and make it completely disappear, but with 1-2 uses it will greatly diminish you pimple in size if not render it almost invisible in a couple of days. I highly recommend this product. It works. That simple.
Zeno Works!

We tried different brands in the drugstores with no real results. A friend told us about this device and let us try hers. Within a couple of days, skin had cleared up. It might seem a bit pricy at first, but to know what you are buying will work makes it well worth the cost!
WORKS IF YOU SPOT A BLEMISH EARLY
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
BOUGHT THIS FOR MY ONCE A MONTH ACNE I GET. WORKS EXCELLENT ON SMALLER PIMPLES (THE KIND THAT USUALLY COME ABOUT AFTER A DAY UNDER THE SKIN). ON LARGER PIMPLES IT SUGGESTS NOT TO USE THIS PRODUCT…BUT, IF YOU CATCH IT WHILE IT’S STILL BREWING UNDER THE SKIN IT’LL WORK PERFECT. I WOULD GIVE THIS PRODUCT 5 STARS- BUT WHAT MUST BE THE SHEER AWESOMENESS OF THIS PRODUCT ZAPS THE BATTERY LIFE IN ABOUT 3 TREATMENTS. OTHER THAN THAT, IT’S AWESOME!
