Should I Stop Using Bp If I'm On Retin A?

My dermatologist puts me on clindamycin/benzoyl peroxide gel + minocycline 200 mg a day + tretinoin 0.1%. My acne are all gone, but I'm left with a lot of PIH. Should I continue with minocycline + tretinoin 0.1% WITHOUT using the benzoyl peroxide? I feel like it makes the marks last longer....or should I just stick with it until I see a derm again in May? Thanks!

I have a very light skin if that means anything.

Trial and error. You can slowly try to stop using it and see if your skin stays clear. If not just keep using it as you were.
