Use of Buf-Puf and mild cleansing bar in acne. 1977

A MacKenzie

As a result of this clinical study with the Buf cleansing system, I believe that it offers several advantages:(1) it is effective with minimal daily use; and (2) patients report that their skin feels smoother and they are easily able to control the irritative potential by experimentally titrating their own levels of application. Based on this sampling of acne patient, I conclude that the buf cleansing system is a useful addition to the treatment modalities now available for acne.
