Kairasa 264 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Hello and welcome to the org Chris! I'm going to move this to the Prescription retinoids sub forum. As for Differin, you could give it a try. I used it for a year at one point and it didn't help me, but as you can see from the other boards, it might help you. You MUST have patience though because it can take up to 12 weeks (3 months) to see the results you want. If you can't wait that long, please don't give retinoids a try right now. But if you can, you might see something great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
whythankyou 0 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Go ahead! I started using Retin A Micro and I only had mild acne. Not only are retinoids good for acne but if you start using a retinoid + sunscreen early it'll prevent wrinkles later in life! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CRIS.D 0 Author Share Posted November 13, 2009 THANK YOU BOTH FOR YOUR REPLIES. I GOT IT FOM THE DRUGSTORE BUT I HAVE 2 WAIT TILL NEXT WEEK BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE THE MOISTURIZER I LIKE. IS CALLED BIOSENSITIVE BY BIODERMA AND IT WORKS GREAT AGAINST THE REDNESS AND IRITATE SKIN. I'LL LET U KNOW WHAT ABOUT. THE ONLY THING THAT SCARES ME A LITTLE IS THE INICIAL BREAKOUT. RIGHT KNOW I DON'T HAVE ANY PIMPLE BUT I DO HAVE CLOGED PORES AND BLACKHEADS. MAIBE THEY TURN INTO PIMPLES...I'LL CROSS MY FINGERS.. REGARDS 2 ALL FROM SPAIN Quote Link to post Share on other sites
