At some point in our lives, I do believe we've all went through a situation when pimples popped out at the worst possible moment. Whether it was juvenile acne, or just some solitary zit growing on the tip of the nose exactly before a very important date, in those moments we really wished there was an easy way to get rid of it, without leaving a mark. Well, now there is, namely the Zeno Acne Treatment developed by Tyrell, Inc.

Zeno is an electronic medical portable device, which has been developed for clearing pimples in people with mild to moderate inflammatory acne. Through a metal pad, it heats up the region affected by the acne lesion, up to a pre-set temperature range known to generate heat shock response. Heat shock response is a reaction bacteria have to heat whereby they transcript a number of genes and activate heat-shock proteins. These heat-shock proteins participate in the bacteria's death by causing the bacteria to self-destruct.

According to the manufacturers' statements, Zeno can clear up a pimple in just a few hours, 1 day max. Even the most difficult of zits will disappear after 2 or 3 treatments of 2 minutes and a half, carried out in a 24-hour period. For the relatively small pimples, one treatment will suffice, and the only mark left is a temporary skin redness in the affected area.
