Unless you have severe, widespread, and scarring acne, The Regimen is normally my suggestion for the most effective acne treatment.

Thats awesome! Should give people another topical route to rely on before spending hundreds of dollars on a dermatologist.

Wow that is pretty cool. By this logic Epiduo should be granted OTC too since it just combines benzoyl peroxide and differin

I agree!

BTW can I ask what percent retinoid and product you use?

Such great news :)
I used to use a Differin 0.2% gel prescribed by the dermatologist daily, but now I'm not seeing him I only use BHA and BP gel. Seriously contemplating to go back to using Differin instead of BP since BP is too drying and harsh on my skin (as a preventive treatment)

Differin gel will be available soon mid-January 2017 at mass retailers, drugstores, and online! The pricing is $14/30 for a 15/45g tube. This is good news for those who don't want to see a dermatologist or primary care physician to get a prescription-strength retinoid.
