I went to a derm today for the first time and he prescribed me Differin 0.1%, 100 mg Minocycline 2x a day, and suggested I wash my face with a cleanser with 5% bp. I had moderate/severe acne when I made my appointment, but when I got there today I would call my acne pretty mild with a moderate amount of red marks. I'm worried that If I start using the Differin and everything my acne could get worse, and end the sort of upward trend I got goin on. Anyone who has been on a regimen similar to this I would really appreciate it if you posted your experience.
Please Help

I used differen and it did wonders for my skin but I was given a 5% bp wash and tht combination irritated my skin so I would use just a plain gentle was and differen at nite cuz it will make ur skin sensitive to light

Did you still use BP in the mornings? I'm already going through the big initial breakout and I feel like I should still do something about it.
