It did not sting.  I then applied A-Ret to my whole face and it did not sting. Can I continue to apply A-Ret after rolling and then apply Infadolan?  I was thinking of doing this 1/wk and then rolling a second time each week with a .5mm and using copper peptides after.  

Sarah, Since I tolerate the A-Ret very well after rolling, would it be beneficial to follow the above regiment?

Thank you,

Lisa

Yes, if your skin can tolerate it, follow your regimen. The skin may become irritated, red and overly flaky as a reaction to retinoids. If it happens, reduce the frequency of application or apply it without dermarolling.

  Concerning retinoids, the more is not always the better.

Do not apply Tretinoin (A-Ret) if you are pregnant, lactating or planning a pregnancy.
