I think this is the right forum category to post this under, but if it isnt, dont bash me for it please.
So these are pictures of how my acne is looking at the moment. Im at a loss of thought of what to do at this point of my acne stage. My acne is better in terms of having less breakouts, but the redness/inflammation and hyper pigmentation is something I have complete 0 idea of how to deal with. Ive been doing Retin-A in varying amounts on different days each week, but I dont know if that is the right course of action to take. Someone please lend me some advice.

Also use exfoliation 2 times a week (AHA or BHA).
All this will make your skin nicer and more clear
Thank you so much for replying! I had an idea that aloe vera gel was related to helping pigmentation, but I wasnt completely sure.

I have one question though, wouldnt exfoliating irritate my skin because Im on a retinoid treatment?
