I started using it at the end of March and it took the entire month of April and the beginning of May for my breakouts to slow down. Now they have almost entirely stopped. My dermatologist told me to give it a good 3 months. I was told to use it every other night and work up to every night. My skin couldn't tolerate it even every other night so I use it every third night. I'm also taking a BCP (generic Yaz) and doxycycline. I think this combo is what has worked for me. Now that they breakouts have almost stopped, I have noticed the red marks lessening. Give it a little more time.

Unfortunately it is normal. I started the beginning of April and now I dont get many breakouts but I have a ton of these red marks. It sucks lol

good to know..what makeup do u use to cover them with?

also what things do u do to stay positive thru this process..i find myself very depressed and anti social because of it

I've been on tretinoin for a few months now and have got loads of red marks, I thought it wasn't working but maybe give it more time and the red marks will disappear.

Really depressing when your trying so hard =/

so echo do u think its working?
