Zeno Acne Zapper Versus Topical Acne Treatment



In your pursuit for the best acne treatment, you may have come across the electronic devices such as MyZeno that zaps zits with an impulse of heat. It all sounds very science fiction, I agree. However, it does actually have clinically proven results and is also endorsed by medical professionals. But, the million dollar question is; how effective is this as a long term acne treatment?

When I first saw the MyZeno gadget it immediately reminded me of a prop out of Star Trek, and the following amusing scenario came to mind.

Most of the crew of the Star Ship Enterprise has been infected by a mysterious Alien rash which Dr 'Bones' McCoy decided to name it acne. The source of this infection was emanating from the planet below. An away team that had not yet been infected, was immediately beamed down to the planet surface to investigate.

Mr. Spock: ”Captain, my Tri-Recorder is picking up millions of small objects heading this way.”

Captain Kirk: ”Thank you Mr. Spock. Gentleman, put your MyZenos on stun and be careful.”

A few minutes later, Commander Sulu comes running, almost tripping over one of those plastic rocks.

Commander Sulu: ”Captain, Captain, we can't hold them any longer, they are breaking through.”

Captain Kirk:”Thank you for the update Mr.Sulu. Mr. Spock do you think these are intelligent life forms?”

Mr.Spock: ”That is highly illogical Captain.”

Then the away team hear a distant scream

Captain Kirk: ”What was that?”

Commander Sulu: ”Captain, that was Ensign Roberts, he's just been infected.”

Captain Kirk: ”I think it's time to leave.”

Captain Kirk then gets out his communicator and says: ”Beam us up spotty”

I am fully aware that suffering from acne is no laughing matter. I have never suffered from acne. But, for more than 20 years I suffered from rosacea which is just as debilitating.

The point I'm trying to put across is, that I don't of dispute the clinical results or its effectiveness. However, I don't believe this is a long term solution as it fails to treat the root cause. Furthermore, the cost of using MyZeno if very high.

Cost of Treatment

Let's the put the spotlight (sorry about the unintentional pun ) on the cost.

MyZeno claims that it takes 1-2 counts to treat a single spot, pimple or zit over a 24 hour period. A 90-count tip costs $35. This means that each spot, pimple or zit will cost around $0.3 to remove Plus of course the initial $100 dollar for the electronic device.

Not only is the cost extensive, but so is the time needed to treat each individual spot, pimple or zit, that MyZeno claims to be two and a half minutes:

Short Term Treatment Only

MyZeno or other electronic devices of this type can only treat existing spots. However, they cannot prevent further outbreaks as they fail to treat the root cause. This means that the sufferer will be hit with constant rising acne treatment costs.

My Opinion

MyZeno is ideal for those who need to rid get the odd pimple here and there very quickly. However, if you want to try and treat mild acne with this. I recommend that this is used in conjunction with a topical treatment that helps to prevent acne outbreaks. This of course will help to limit some of the substantial costs.
