It's temporary. You are just drying out your skin. Put moisturizer under your eyes, then wait 15 minutes. Then, apply the differin, and avoid the eye area. The wrinkles should disappear after a day or two.

I've heard of people getting permanent wrinkles from Accutane. But of course, Accutane is much stronger than differin. Maybe you are applying too much too often. You need to be patient with that junk.

yes, differin also did not work for me. I hope it works for you though.
And as others said, keep it out of the eye area! You don't need to put it there..

I believe that it can wrinkle non-wrinkled skin because I am 22 and never had any fine lines until I started Retin A Micro.. As crazy as it sounds, I never had them..now I have little tiny lines under my eyes. I'm not a sun worshipper by any means and I take care of my undereye area with an eye cream.. I pay close attention, too but never saw these lines until after about 9 months on retin a micro. Weird.

I'll try, but i don't think these wrinkles are caused by dry skin...they seems like 'permanent'. sad.gif

Please, try. I've never heard of a fourteen year old with permanent wrinkles! I noticed my under-eye area doing the same thing; that's how I learned to apply eye-cream, then wait. Trust me! It works!

Get off differin. It doesn't work, it just burns the living daylights out of your skin. I have tried it and couldn't cope with it after 1 week. Just made my face peel etc etc. Accutane is the way to go or anti-biotics. Your skin is already sensitive so some of these harsh topical treatments can actually irritate it more.

well, after being on Bactrim and Duac combination since November, I've been on Differin for 2 days... and I must say I'm liking it so far. Maybe because my skin has become so acustomed to the BP and Clindamicyn from the Duac, but there has been no burning at all. I am just applying the Differin to areas where I have active whiteheads, and they seem to be shrinking and disappearing very quickly. I say just give it a try on just a few spots and see what you think. I'll update how it's been going in a week, hopefully I will continue to experience the same results.

You're being silly. You're 14 years old. Kids your age don't have wrinkles and Differin isn't going to give you wrinkles. You'll produce collagen up until you're 20 years old. Collagen is a natural product your body makes that gives you that plump youthful look. This is why people look super young up to the age of 30 or so. The body stops producing this chemical around the age of 20. if you do see something *a wrinkle*, it's just because your skin is dry, lacking moisture. It'll go away. Be happy, you're 14, no wrinkles, you're getting rid of whatever acne you may have at a youthful age. So enjoy your youth, you'll have great skin while you're still very young. Lucky you! smile.gif Ciao! smile.gif
