Epiduo (Bp?) Causing Scarring.

I have been using Epiduo for about a year straight, every single night. I recently stopped after I noticed the texture of my skin changing - areas around small breakouts began to become indented rolling scars. After a few days of not using epiduo, the scars seem to be improving (not as deep anymore). Is this common with benzoyl peroxide? Or the other retinoid ingredient?

BP dries out the skin and therefor impairs healing. I suggest to not use it for an extended amount of time or get a good moisturizer.

Straight year ?? Won"t you think its too long ? You are using a Retinoid from a year and now you need to stop using it or otherwise you will get red spots all over your face
