I'm a huge fan too! It does work. . . Really well! The key is to purchase the Canadian Prep. H because it includes the active ingredient not sold in the USA.

Preparation H - "Youth in a Tube" by: Dr. Michael Cannon, Ph.D.
My male friends and I are always teasing each other because of our age and of course the crows feet (wrinkles around the eyes) that men seem to acquire around 40ish. However, because of my education background and clinical training, I have always been skeptical regarding most topical creams/ointments claiming as a quick fix in dermatological wrinkle cures because most of our wrinkles or lack of are based on genetics, along with diet, exercise, sun exposure, and mental attitude towards life stressors.
As my research continued, I thought to myself this may be the "preverbal fountain of youth in a squeeze tube." There are two types: ONE that is sold in Canada, which contains bio-dyne or LYCD (live yeast cell derivatives) and the SECOND type sold in the USA that use to contain the ingrediant Bio-Dyne chemical composition, but no longer does as a result of FDA (Food and Drug Administration). Not that the FDA discovered anything caustic or dangerous with the composition found in the original Preparation H, but that the chemical compound was questionable and lacking clinical evidence that this ingredient verses another ingredient was any better. It is pure speculation on my part, but more than likely it was cost effective to utilize some other type of chemical derivative that was less expensive to produce and distribute.
Anyway...Long story short, I thought I'd give the "youth in tube" as proclaimed by many users a try and I'm telling you now to take the chance and purchase a tube for yourself.
In comparison to the current beauty aids marketed claiming its wrinkle cure, I say to BUY THE CANADIAN PREPARATION H - IT DOES WORK!!!! In just two days, I noticed a major difference in the texture, consistency, and dermatological composition and reduction of wrinkles around my eyes. However, this product is not without a few drawbacks. It does smell AWFUL so beware of this, if you have sensitive skin – it may sting some, and the skin will be somewhat greasy (a little dab will do you). This is why I recommend the cream instead of the ointment to help reduce the greasy appearance, which will be important to women and their make-up application.
. . .But if you want a quick lift for under eye puffiness and what appears to be amazing wrinkle reduction, yet not clinically proven to show any long-term lasting results, use it and you'll see what I'm talking about.
If you have spent money on other major name brand beauty aids, your search is over. GO PREP H with Bio-Dyne from Canada!!! I think you'll be extremely pleased with your relatively inexpensive purchase and very pleased with its immediate results.
This testimony is by no means any type of proven medical/clinical evidence of exact results, which may vary from person to person. This is strictly an opinion after my own personal experience with preparation H; and for me, I swear by it!!!

Preparation H Treatment for Under Eye by: Angie
I have used Prep H for years particularly when my under eye area is puffy. I have found it to work rather quickly in reducing the puffiness.
I haven't noticed that it has helped the wrinkles but I wasn't aware that was a benefit either.
Is it only the prep H with biodyne that works on wrinkles as well as under eye puffiness?

Prep H by: Redhighheels
I'm not sure who it was that wrote about their experience with prep H. But this is for you.
#1 Make sure your product has biodyne.
#2 Make sure you got original formula.
#3 Start off using a pea size on both eyes at least 2 times a day.
#4 Put a heavy amount on entire face and neck at bedtime.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
I am such a FIRM believer in this stuff.

Preparation H as a Wrinkle Treatment by: Jan
After reading this recommendation I decided to experiment and tried Preparation H around my eyes.
For some reason I was expecting it to smell really bad but the one with aloe and other natural nutrients fortunately doesn't have any odor at all. It doesn't sting either.
Unfortunately after a week and a half I can't say that I have seen any difference either.
I had heard that models will use Preparation H as a quick remedy to reduce the swelling underneath the eyes. I can't say that trick really works either.
I'm back to the ice for swelling and my good old standbys for the wrinkles.
