ive been using tretinoin cream 0.05% for mild acne for about a year with amazing results, however id like to stop using it. ive been without it almost a week and have been getting a few red spots that aren't exactly full blown pimples but more than i used to get before starting tretnoin. is it normal to have some extra acne while stopping the medication? how long do these symptoms go on for? im 17 now and with my genetics i really shouldn't have much acne since neither of my parents did and i take hormonal contraceptives to add onto it
