Here’s something interesting for a change.
It’ a wacky new product called Acne Pen. Don’t expect this to be a permanent solution, but I can see some uses for this.
I can explain Acne Pen better when we take a look at it.

You use Acne Pen by putting the metal ball tip on your pimple. Acne Pen then ‘sprays’ the pimple with microscopic silver particles.
Silver is strongly antimicrobial. So it kills the bacteria and that should take care of the pimple. In alternative health field silver has been used for long for it’s antimicrobial properties.
So in theory Acne Pen seems to work nicely.
Of course Acne Pen only deals with the most superficial symptoms that lead to acne. It does nothing to the root cause of acne. So don’t expect it to cure your acne.
Still, it can be a good ‘emergency’ treatment. When you see a new pimple coming up just ‘zap’ it with Acne Pen and it should be gone in a day or two.
Acne Pen works with the same idea as Zeno Zit Zapper. Where Zeno uses heat Acne Pen uses silver.
Acne Pen will set you back $117 (at the time of writing). I think that’s a reasonable price for an emergency treatment option. Assuming that it works like it’s advertised.
