Yes! I love mine. If she has a lot of breakouts, it may not be cost (or time) effective, since each replacement head ($35) is good for 90 treatments and each treatment is a 2 1/2 minute cycle and each pimple will need at least 2 or 3 treatments. But for mild to moderate acne, it works like a dream (for me anyway!). You have to pay attention and zap each pimple as soon as you feel it starting to come on, because it won't work on "established" ones. And it works with targeted heat, so it may leave a red spot on the skin for a couple hours afterward.

And it does come with a warranty, though I can't tell you how good it is since I had no need to return mine!
