okay I remember using retin-a and noticing how clear and scarfree my skin looked after. But a year later I want to get another presription for it but problem is I forgot what kind of retin-a it was.

it was a GEL retin-a.

It wasnt retin-a MICRO.

It came in a green & white tube.

Im not sure but i think the percent was .5? or maybe 5.0? argh dont remember.

does anyone know what im talking about..

and if not, could retina micro work the same?

thx

I've tried both Retin-A and Retin-A Micro (actually I'm currently on it).

Retin-A Micro is actually a better solution because it does less of the over-drying out and also it has a time-release formula, so that according to them, it releases the medication more slowly (which is supposed to be less irritating to your skin).

I would just try out the Retin-A Micro. Actually, I don't think they're making any more of the old Retin-A (if you go to their website, they only advertise the Micro version now).

I was wondering why it didnt have it in any websites. =)

I will definetly try the retin-a micro.
