"After years of struggling with hormonal breakouts, this cleanser has been a game-changer. I use the Base Model twice daily, and within a month, my chin and jawline acne calmed down significantly. What surprised me most? It doesn’t leave my skin tight or flaky—thanks to the glycerin and amino acids. Finally, a medicated wash that feels gentle."Purchase Date: November 2024 | Usage Period: 5 months
⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ David Park - Fitness Instructor, Age 38
"I have oily skin and used to rely on harsh gels that stripped my face. Switched to the Pharmaact Advanced Model six months ago, and my dermatologist noticed the difference at my last check-up. The foam is rich but rinses clean, no residue. My only note: it’s a bit pricey, but worth it for the dual hydration and acne control."Purchase Date: January 2025 | Usage Period: 6 months
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Aya Fujimoto - Skincare Blogger
"As someone with reactive, acne-prone skin, I’m extremely selective. The amino acid surfactants in the Base Model are a revelation—deeply cleansing without triggering redness. I love that it’s a Japanese quasi-drug; that certification means real results, not just marketing. After 3 months, my pores look smaller and my skin tone is more even."Purchase Date: October 2024 | Usage Period: 7 months

Dr. Hiroshi Yamamoto - Board-Certified Dermatologist, Tokyo
"Pharmaact’s quasi-drug status under Japan’s PMD Act speaks volumes. Their amino acid-based delivery system enhances penetration of salicylic acid while preserving the skin barrier—a rare balance in acne treatments. I recommend the Advanced Model for combination skin and the Pro Model for aging, acne-prone patients."
Dr. Lena Choi - Cosmetic Science Researcher
"The Triple Hydration Mix in the Pro Model—glycerin, hyaluronic acid, and ceramides—is formulation excellence. It counters the drying effects of high-concentration salicylic acid, making it one of the few medicated cleansers that support long-term skin resilience. A benchmark for dual-action skincare."
