My sons were on Retin A for nearly a year and never saw much improvement. Their dr. kept increasing the strength every few months so they kept hanging in there with it, but it was never much good. The...

My doctor has been prescribing me this. I went to a dermatologist once back before the summer of 8th grade. When I went to my doctor about a month back she said it looked like I was making progress a...

Update on Tretinoin: I'm thinking about giving up. Nothing good is happening to my face. Just a bunch of dryness and peeling; oh and MORE ZITS. I've tried literally everything in the drugstore/higher...

I'm all about supporting others. i too caved and picked a bunch. There were these two zits on my forehead that were coming to a head and I forced them out. They're both red but flat and healing. Thos...

The first few weeks I was using it every other night like my doctor said to. Now I am using it every night. All I do at night is wash my face, wait 30 minutes, then apply the gel.

I've been on Tretinoin .01% gel since November 22nd, 2013. A little less than a month ago I was put on a stronger dose of .025% gel. I'm still breaking out and it's been nearly 4 months. The pimples a...

It's too late for that. From previous cystic breakouts I have loads of scars.

Hey all, and happy almost Friday! After staying up late last night searching this site for some support, I decided to start my own 30 day challenge. The 30 day challenge consists of no picking, popp...

Almost month 3 of Tretinoin. Hey all. I haven't posted in a while due to being very busy. I have the time to post now though. I have changed my skincare routine to the following: Morning: Neutrogena...

Day 3 of Tretinoin Well it's been four days since I started Tretinoin every other night. In these past four days, I've applied it twice. When I skipped a night, I applied a thin layer of Benzoyl Pero...

Hello everyone! Happy Friday. I'm going to be stating a Tretinoin Personal Log for anyone who wants to try it out and see how it works. Or if you just want to follow my journey. I went to the doctor...

Hey everyone. I'm new to this site, so forgive me if I sound confusing at all. Since I have never posted anything about my skin condition or history, I'll let you in on that first. Ever since 4th gra...

I use Cerave normal/dry lotion. It instantly sooths any flakes. It also doesn't clog pores and is gentle. It doesn't have any acne fighting ingredients, but it helps calm the skin which helps acne hea...
