Hi all

Im 41 with combo oily acne prone skin

In a nutshell I started breaking out at 38 and have been dealing with it since..many derms..many rx (aczone, acanya, retin-a clindamycin etc etc)

The only think that remotely attacks my alrge breakouts is finacea

BUT my mila under my eyes go nuts and I get crazy chicken skin bumps all over my cheeks?

anyone else

I keep coming back to it..this is my 3rd time because it prevents that large nasty painful ones

Will this pass..is it congestion clearing?

I usually stay on it for a good couple week 6-8 never go away

but when I stop they clear up wuickly

any advice

using tiny pea of finacea am and pm

retin-a pm

dr lin hydrating gel

Thankskim

I'm on the same recommendation by my dermatologist(s). Except it's recommended that finacea is applied am only. Tretinoin at night. Try this first. I rotate between finacea 4 mos. 2% hydroquinone 4 mos. Tretinoin .05% yr round. What cleanser and moisturizer are u using?
