I'm using clear gel on my face and usually leave it on for about an hour. Does that sound effective, or should I be leaving it on for longer to see better results?

Keeping a clear gel on your face for an hour can be effective, but for optimal results, it is recommended to keep it on for at least 2-3 hours. This allows the active ingredients in the gel to penetrate the skin and work effectively. Make sure to follow the instructions on the product label for the best results.
