Does Tretinoin Really Work?

I always hear positive things about tretinoin helping people with acne. Has anyone here not seen results with it? I've been using it for 7-8 months and haven't noticed much of a difference so wondering if maybe it isn't effective for my skin and I should try something else instead.... I'm using a Curology formula and built up my tolerance so I use it every night.

It is my friend is using it for acne and I am using for anti aging. if your with a subscription service like curology. It seems like its time to consult with them. They may need to up the dose or change the formula which they should be able to do. It seems like you have given yourself enough time.

Can you tell me more about your skin care routine. because retinol is not a panacea. It's just a product that helps your skin increase collagen production, promoting the gradual skin turnover process. you should mix it with HA, other restorative products too

I use a lot of moisturizing/hydrating products to combat the dryness. AM - Cerave benzoyl peroxide cleanser (waited until I had been using Tret for 7 months to add another active ingredient) - Haruharu Black rice hyaluronic acid toner (alcohol and essential oil free) - Versed dew point gel moisturizer - Paula's Choice youth extending hydrating SPF PM - Klairs black deep cleansing oil - B.lab matcha hydrating foam cleanser - Haruharu Black rice hyaluronic acid toner - Isntree mugwort ampoule - Curology tretinoin formula - Etude House Soon Jung Barrier Cream

Most people I know who are on tretinoin visited a dermatologist before buying them so it's effective for them. Maybe it is better to have a derma test your skin and recommend one for you ๐Ÿ˜Š

I've had bad experiences with dermatologists. If I find a good one or someone I trust recommends one then I might get my skin tested. it's so hard to find good doctors ๐Ÿ˜”

I started with Tret 0.025% and used it for nearly 2 years. Could not see much difference if at all. So, Iโ€™ve decided to go 0.05% and wow ๐Ÿ˜ฎ after only few months the difference it made was unreal, especially around my eyes - it ironed all the annoying little wrinkles and I swear my skin feels tighter (in a good way, no sagging) x
