Used Tretinoin? Rate It:
Cons:
Some dryness but not bad
Pros:
i have been useing retin-a 0.1 %..for many years...it is the only product that
keeps those uninvited bumps away..
since being on retin-a...no more pimples..plus
my skin is softer & smooher...
Cons:
i too went through the red dry scaly ..
ugly skin thingy for about 2 months..
but have to say it was really worth all the sobs ...
Pros:
Cleared up acne
Pore size decreased
Takes two months to actually notice any difference but stick with it.
Haven't had a major break out since
Cons:
Can dry out skin
Pros:
+ The stuff's amazing. I barely break out any more, and get very few, if any, cysts.
Cons:
- It made me flake, though not in a big way. This isn't a huge con... in fact, it's sort of a sign that the Retin-A is doing its job. That said, if you get too dry, move to a lower concentration or buffer with a moisturizer.
- It took a long while to work. Stick with it. Look at these reviews. A majority of the people who have used Retin-A for an extended period of time report favorable results. The disappointed ones seem to be the impatient ones. Coincidence?
Pros:
~Smooth skin
~Only use once a day
~Got rid of acne
~Soft skin
Cons:
~Took a while to work
~Initial breakout was horrible
~Expensive, even with insurance
Pros:
completley cleared my horrible blackheads and whiteheads that i struggled with for the past eight years....no more cysts either and my face hasnt looked this good since i was a freshman in high school
Cons:
took three months to work
initial breakout was bad but only lasted a week
leaves red marks that take a while to heal
took three months to see results but they happened kinda overnight
made the pores on my nose bigger
Pros:
- It works (unlike everything else I tried).
-You only need to apply it at night before bed.
- I found it to be not as irritating as benzoyl peroxide (which didn't work for me).
-You only need a small (pea-sized) amount
Cons:
-I think it needs to be combined with an antibiotic, either oral or topical, to be effective.
-Can irritate the skin if you apply too much.
-It took me months of consistent use for me to see results, I only became completely clear when I started taking minocycline.
-Initial breakout is not great, but don't give up!
