Hi!! So for a couple of months I have been battling the worst acne of my life! I always had a clear face, but have gotten cystic acne on me cheeks over the summer. I tried everything.. and am now using tea tree oil as a cleanser, cetaphil moisturizer, and differin gel (adapalene 0.1%) My cystic acne cleared up so so so much and the differin helped clear of my cystic acne incredibly.. but I'll admit I still break out near my jawline and some on my cheeks.. but never the big cystic pimples I've gotten in he summer. I recently went to my doctor because I beleive it's my hormones causing the relentless pimples so she prescribed me 100mgs of minocyclin pill and tretinoin cream 0.025% at night. She told me to apply the tretinoin cream at night instead of the differin. I'm all for taking the pill to clear my face! But I'm really not sure if I should use the tretinoin cream on my face instead of the differin... Could anybody help me out and guide me on your experience or what you think I should do?? THANKS!
