Worried about ret a cream causing dryness
« on: April 29, 2013, 05:40:07 AM »
Hi. I have been using this for awhile.  It does seem to dry out the skin though.  How does that work over time with improving the skin? Will the dryness stop?

Tretinoin makes skin initially dry and red but this should eventually go away. You can mix Tretinoin with any other creams or oils to offset the dryness. I use almond oil (sprinkle cotton pad with tap water, add oil and apply it on your skin).
