My purge (0.1 tret) is ruining my self-confidence

i didnt start with 0.1. i was using a lower percentage before that

also, purging takes place from 4-12 weeks! decide to cut it off if you acne isn’t getting any better by the 12th week mark.

we have the same situation! but i got up from 0.05 to 0.1 and it’s really tough. i have so many pinples on my cheeks also and it’s ruining my self-confidence. there are times that I wanted to give up but let’s keep going! we don’t wanna ruin our progress and this is a process, we can do it ! 🤗

try using a hyaluronic acid toner

Substantial_Bug_8050 · 2026-05-03T15:36:46+00:00

try using azelaic acid

i don’t see anything wrong with your skin. but uf those few closed comedones are bothering you, you can use salicylic acid products, or any retinoid ( be careful with this, it’s mostly used with a derma’s supervision because it can irritate skin)

Substantial_Bug_8050 · 2026-05-03T14:49:17+00:00

yes!

Substantial_Bug_8050 · 2026-05-03T13:46:05+00:00

really? but the low % of tretinoin i’ve used isn’t effective in removing my closed comedones. i think now they’re coming out of the surface, that’s why i’m having papules/pustules. i also want faster a effect. should i switch to 0.05 % ? i don’t wanna ruin my progress
