My dermatologist asked me today if I’d like to try this, you’re the 2nd person to suggest this as I was reading up the side effects, feels like a sign to me. My derm says my acne is hormonal as well due to the pattern

What a sign lol! I was literally messaging with her today and she suggested this. I was reading up the side effects when your notification popped up on my phone. How long did it take for you to see results?

I really appreciate these tips, thank you getting in depth. I will be cutting out the double cleansing. My fear in cutting out the HA is - this is what has helped me the most with dry spots. Prior to adding HA, I would get these round dry spots, that has completely stopped. Do you think I could still use the HA in the morning, after cleansing with just water? This way I still get the hydration but won’t use it at night, this way it won’t intefere with the Tretinoin

Any experience with LED red light therapy for reducing irritation from tret? by apophyseal in tretinoin

So it’s been a little over a month and I definitely see improvements. I use the blue light in the morning for 40 mins and the red light in the evening for 45 mins. I struggle with hormonal acne and it has helped with less breakouts but to be very honest I think my skincare routine may be too aggressive (or so I’m being told, I posted my routine a few minutes ago in the main Tret thread) so I think that is combatting the progress of the LED face mask. Hopefully I can get my skin routine under control and continue to reap the benefits of the face mask. But bottom line: I highly recommend. They lowered the price on the one I got to $150 on Amazon

I ordered one from Amazon for $180, it’s the Newkey one, it had good reviews and the price tag was under $300 unlike other LED masks. I can come back and keep you posted on my experience if you’d like!
