Wetyuringo 3 Share Posted September 10, 2010 Sorry this thread is really old, but I have the same side effects as you. It's like a persistant sunburn, I haven't discontinued retin-a and am wondering, did you acne come back after you stopped using it? How old are you?

How old are you? no not really b/c it's a mild case you should discontinue for sure and use all-natural.

That really persuaded me to stick with it bc right now my face is a total reck!!! AHHH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really wouldn't use retin-a, try something over-the-counter natural fade cream that has no hydroqui-something, or I would try aha Edited October 27, 2010 by dan25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
