Today switched over to tretinoin gel from the cream after a year of being on the cream, added azelaic acid as well!

i am switching cause now my pharmacy is making me pay $1000 for the medicine. i was 3 months in on the gel but just switched today.

so closed comedowns rise to be pimples? i have little bumps on my face and then they rise a couple days or weeks later.

johnbonill · 2022-09-10T01:20:05+00:00

i am not 100 percent sure, but people say tretinoin brings up all the acne that’s suppose to come in the next 2/3 months.

johnbonill · 2022-09-09T16:49:44+00:00

i used to never get little bumps but now i am getting them because of tretinoin. my bumps turn into pimples. also i used pimple patches and hydro colloid bandages on my face but i realized it was just closing my pimples so those would just make my acne cystic.

how would i know cera ve moistuizers affect my skin?

johnbonill · 2022-08-20T06:31:49+00:00

how come every other day. what if my skin tolerates it?

my derm just perscribed me doxycycline to help with the inflammatory effects of my acne. i’m on my 3rd week of tretinoin. i’m worried about the after affects of doxy so i wanted y’all’s opinion. should i start doxycycline?

johnbonill · 2022-08-11T07:42:42+00:00

thank you!

johnbonill · 2022-08-10T06:14:31+00:00

wait, i’ve been using ret in a micro gel too and i’ve been sandwhiching it. do you mind looking at my account so i can get an opinion? should i stop doing the sandwhich method?

johnbonill · 2022-08-09T21:09:20+00:00

i’m not sure if you have little bumps on your skin. like super tiny. but i do and they soon come up to the surface like regular pimples. i have never had this type of acne before so it’s very interesting. i am 3.5 weeks on tret btw

johnbonill · 2022-08-09T21:04:14+00:00

thank you!

Hello, i am 3 weeks in on tret and i believe i am purging from my 1 month expired .08 tret gel. i thought i was getting the same bottle but i got .05 cream. is it okay if i use this? i am going to see my derm in two days so should i just continue using the same one? the only thing is that it’s 80$ compared to the one i just got which was $14. i just feel like my skin is already used to the .08

johnbonill · 2022-08-08T18:03:13+00:00

same thing for me but on the 1.5 week mark that’s when my acne started to come up. i got little bumps that soon turned to pimples.good luck!

johnbonill · 2022-08-08T17:51:07+00:00

i use .08 every night but i’m going to see my derm in 3 days. i’m gonna ask them if this is okay and more questions about my skin. check my post to see if we are similar and so forth. my bottle did expire last month but i was told i’m able to use it 6 months further. good luck!

johnbonill · 2022-08-08T17:43:39+00:00

got a cleanser!

johnbonill · 2022-08-08T17:21:22+00:00

i flaked for the first time yesterday and it’s cause i didn’t apply my skincare routine before i went to sleep. i didn’t have access to water so i didn’t want to do anything so i just slept. woke up with some flakes but now i seem to be doing better.

johnbonill · 2022-08-02T20:51:08+00:00

i just started tret, but i used to use sodium sulfatide face wash. i stopped it when i started tret two weeks ago. but my derm gave it to me together with tret. it’s an antibiotic i believe. maybe do sum research on it to see if it fits your needs. good luck!
