Acne.org Products
Hi folks, first time poster,
I recently had TCA cross performed about 3 weeks ago. I've always had acne, but manage to get it controlled using retin-A. Since then, I stop using Retin-A, but getting minor acne flare up (not a lot). How long should I wait to reintroduce Retin-A into my routine again? The scabs have fallen off between day 7-10, and there slight redness in the treated scars, which is expected. I understand that collagen is what remodels and flattens the scar and wondering if Retin-A would interfere.
Thanks in advance for your advise folks!
Cheers,
Thanks for your response!
@joeys The provider was aware of my regimen and said 2 weeks should be sufficient to restart my product, but when I was recounting her statement, I realized that it was lil vague and wanted to double check specifically for retin-A. Unfortunately, she's out on vacation so haven't been able to get in contact with her.
@cookingENG The areas are a little red only where the scabs fell off, but they're not raw,irritated (aren'tsensitive or sting), nor inflamed. They're just dark reddish hyperpigmentation-like.
Cheers,
