hi there, my main problem is that i have very oily skin (especially nose and forehead), lots of blocked pores and blackheads.

im gonna try start using tretinoin and i wanted to know from people here - how effective is it for dealing with extreme oily skin,blackheads,blocked pores?

i will try it just on my nose where its worst and maybe later on ill put it on more areas..

ive been told it acts kinda like accutane but locally on the skin where i put it, is that really a good description for it?

In my experience Retin-A doesn't do anything to slow down oil, although it does help keep the pores clear which makes oil escape more readily.

Yeah I think thats one of the main things Retin-A gets rid of.
