Tazorac Cream to Gel

[KatharineAnn 0]

Hi guys, I've been on Tazorac for a little over 5 weeks and have seen very little, if any, improvement. I thought maybe it was cause I've been using the cream .05% and some people say the cream can cause acne or isn't as strong as the gel. So, I had some samples of the .05% gel from my derm and I'm starting to use those instead. For those of you who have used Tazorac, did you ever switch between the two and see any noticeable difference in efficacy? And does switching from cream to gel make you go through the breakout period again?? (I REALLY dont want to do that again...) Thanks!
