I've been on 0.025% for the last 2 months

Should I switch to 0.05% ?

If not, when should I?

obvi 0.1 is best lol more cell turnover, switch to it if your skin isn't sensitive, switch to 0.1 now your skin is already used to tret being present.

Rly depends on your own skin, start low and move up if it doesn't work

No

Why do you want to up it? I did it and regret doing so
 
Too strong for my skin, too early on, and the cream was clogging my pores

I went back down to 0.025

He should wait a few months before even considering upping the dose, or at least have a reason to want a higher dose
