I have been on Retin-A for a month and a half. That combined with minocylcine have helped my breakouts (although I just had a big one due to not having power for a week and half because of hurricane sandy).

 

However, I have noticed that my red marks look a lot worse than a month ago. Is it because its thinning the skin or something? idk

It doesn't help with PIH at all. Don't waste your time with Retin A. It did absolutely nothing for me (like all medicines didn't).

Ignore the post above if it didin't work for him it does not mean it's not going to work for you.

A good regimen on fading red marks is : Differin/Retin-A , daily exfoliation with AHA or BHA .
