question on Retin-A
Tuesday, March 30th, 2004I have to say I’m a bit surprised that your doctor didn’t tell you
about Retin-A more…Or at least it doesn’t sound like it. Depending
on what type of Retin-A you have (micro, gray, green, etc.) you need
to be really careful with it since it is so drying…
I used to use Retin-A and it was so strong that I could only use it
every two or three days, and gradually work up to where I could use
it everynight which took a good month or more.
Anyhow…I would suggest to quit using it until your face returns
back to where it is "normal" like you’re used to, then use a very
small amount of Retin-A just on the areas you want and then wait a
few days before using it again…
Hope this helps!!!
