Notifications Clear all Do Retinoids Reduce Oil Production?strongbadia 5000 MemberMember7(@strongbadia5000) Posted : 08/18/2015 10:42 am I had a Dermatologist tell me using Tazorac would reduce the oil production on my skin. Researching online I could not find anything to back up this claim. Has anyone used Tazorac or any other retinoid and noticed a decrease in oil production? Thanks! Quote Ihateusernamesx MemberMember38(@ihateusernamesx) Posted : 08/19/2015 4:48 am I use Differin and it definitely decreases oil proudction for me. When I'm not on anything for my acne my face is like an oil slick.

They also give the skin a "shine" that makes it look more greasy. One reason y i hate retinoids Quote
