experience with tretinoin?

Register to hide this ad
thinking of starting with some 0.025% and was wondering what everyones experiences have been like? (purging etc)
Did nothing for me except make my skin dry. I used it for a little over a year and the highest I ever went was 0.05%. now I’m going on accutane
 
ahh ok fair
if you’re a girl then I’d just go on low dose accutane now if you can because I didn’t and I regret it now and wish I started sooner (before you start it you have to get pregnancy tests and stuff and it’s slow and annoying)
But a lot of people get really good results on tretinoin so idk

ookk i might do tret first bc its easier to get my hands on but depending on how that goes i might give accutane a try

yeah that’s a good plan
btw remember to increase your usage gradually to avoid purging if you didn’t know that already (like 2-3 times a week at first)

I have been using trentinoin every night before going to sleep, along with a cleanser and moisturizer that I apply every time I take a shower, and my acne and skin quality has gotten somewhat better.

I’ve got 0.05 on the way I’ve never had any skin care but my skin texture has not been the best recently so I’m going to try it out

It helps minimize acne in my experience, and it also helps with healing, but Accutane is the king for defeating acne.

I didn’t purge, but it’s very, very drying, so you have to make sure that you moisturize and work your way up to daily usage. Overall it’s worth it, and it improves acne all the way.
