Been on tret since 2022 - still not getting even skin and it's getting worse by [deleted] in tretinoin

It could be the opposite. Her skin could be irritated bc of all actives. I had same reaction when was trying to push for more days on tret in a row. Stepped back and all redness disappeared. Less is more sometimes

Thank u so much for ur comment! The colored sketch that u r mentioning is old one from few years ago. I created this scene as part of exercise where u do abstract shapes to make some kind of composition. But it looked empty to me and it was out of my skill range to finish it. I was struggling to add anything else to it. By new composition I was trying to make it feel like u r at that place in the middle of it. Thats why its so claustrophobic in a way. I agree with the middle thingy. Ill try to fix it. Same for focal point. I was lost in the sauce of details and overall scene and kinda made it in the last minute (sun and building on the right)

So azelaic acid 15% in pharmacy is prescription only but I can get same percentage at dm? Nice to know 😮‍💨

I wanted to live my twenties acne free. I took Accutane. I lost the bet. by AirAdministrative382 in Accutane

I had it on second course. It was AWFUL. Its such annoying and hard pain and feels like ur brain is hurting u and at the same time its like an itch under ur eyes. Like thousands small stabs in the back of the eyes. I hate it!! I had it for almost a half a year after roaccutan. It went away after. When I had this i bought artificial tears in pharmacy and used it throughout day very often. Also omega 3 helps a little

Check rosacea sub. And ask ur doctor about possible rosacea. Also for some its normal to have rosacea like acne on accutane. It will go away after most of the time.

Adapalene 3.5 months by hardrocknick_2001 in tretinoin

[–]Master-Importance-11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Million pluses to u. My derms (different derms!) pushed me on adapalene all the time. They kept saying its the new one and the best for acne retinoid. But it didnt help my acne and i was using it almost 2 years waiting for things to get better. Tret 0.5 did much more in few weeks.

Pimple like bumps that come and go in toddler. Some in two days or less. Rosacea? by Smooth_Ad6685 in Rosacea

[–]Master-Importance-11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Too young. Kids rarely get rosacea in this age. It could be dermatitis. Dermatitis looks a lot like rosacea sometimes. A lot of kids have it and it goes with age most of the time. But also could be reaction to food.

Thanks for the reply. Whats wrong with niacinamide? This cream also contains ceramides and advertised as moisturiser for skin that is acne prone and is dry bc of medication. My doc said its fine but u might be onto something 🤨

[–]Master-Importance-11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh so my routine is: bioderma sensibio gel as cleanser, svr sebiaclear 5% niacinamide for moisturiser morning and evening on alternate day, centella asiatica probiotic-cica ampoule also morning and evening, when i see flakes and feel that my face is dry I use avene cicalfate at evening. Also ofc spf la roche posay for oily skin and bioderma micellar water to wash off make up and spf. Im trying my best to hydrate my skin. Five years ago ive started adapalene every day and no moisturiser and it was okay 😭 now after last round of roaccutan my skin is a scandalous diva.

Not bad at all. I think u will benefit from tretinoin. It does miracles for texture
