"yaz saved my skin. i had severe acne, whiteheads, blackheads, cysts, the works, on my face. i was prescribed yaz after none of the topical medications worked, for example, tazorac, in both the gel and cream form. it does take a while to see the full effect. i noticed after 2 months the shine that i always had on my face went away, and slowly, over a course of about 9 months my skin was completely clear. it was a miracle, to say the least. my dermatologist kept me on the tazorac just as a caution, but i know it was the yaz that truly cleared my skin up. i highly recommend yaz as long as you are in good health to use it (don&#039;t smoke or anything) and want to see a real change in your skin."
