Eh the pics dont show the bad texture. trust me, look at how I look in the sun, tomato cheeks with scars and lines all over.

If I took a picture in that lighting at those angles I'm telling you it would look much worse. You may not have flawless skin but it's way better than the majoritys' on here and definitely not something to feel down about.

I see you've been on Retin-A. Is it working? The problem with retin-a is it will cause permanent redness, atleast it did to me. Not RED RED but noticable red in bright lights.

I've been on it for about two and a half weeks now. I'm going to give it six weeks before I assess how effective it is. I am clearing up acne wise but the red marks from past acne are really bothering me now. And I don't have a red tinge or any redness in my face really (besides the marks). I'm peeling and have lots of flakes still. What concentration were you on?

You should give retinoids 12 weeks to see the full effect. Your skin will be a mess at first but it gets better. Be gentle with your face.

I agree with catl, u definitley have to give it time. My skin isnt perfect but it took at least a year if not a lil more before i got good results.

Why did you stop RAM? You have to stick with it. And your skin is clear now. Be happy. I seriously hope your not complaining about your skin. I'd die for your skin.

For the people that are on RAM and have REAL acne problems, just stick with it. I've been using it for 4 months now and RAM has really kicked into high gear as of late. It's helped my scars tremendously. Like I said, just stick with it.
