What % to start with? How to use it? How often? I need answers to that questions.

i used as much concentration as i could and couldnt care less about the quantity since it would feel painful anyway

Start with .025 % and use the sandwich method to apply it if you have sensitive skin ( only for 1- 2 weeks so that your skin adapts to it). Then just apply it directly to your skin and use a good moisturizer according to your skin. Start with 2x a week, then dose to alternate days after a few months.

-2x per week the first few months, then after 1 month use 3x, and at the end just do it each alternate days, pea-sized amount (.25% ).

When the first tube ends, just switch to .05%.

Make sure to use a good moisturizer and fix your skin barrier before using tret; it can dry your skin and fck your skin barrier.
