You shouldnt have to start from 0 your skin should still be adapting to the tret
I started from once a week, I had a lot of problems with tret from september, I even changed formulations from gel to cream and lately everything was going well, but now my progress is ruined
It's a weaker version of tret basically and since he overdid it it could be viable for him
Idk know man, everything was good on tret for me less acne, better skin texture, it just seems I have to wait way longer to be able to increase frequency
You do you
do u need prescription for it? and btw where did u buy it
Adapapene the face cream?
Get it at any store like Traget or walmart if in America
alr bet imma look into it
Prescriptions aren't the problem for me, in my country I can get most shit without prescription
I'm alr on Salicylic acid do u think I should include this too or is it going to be too much
I didn't really had a purge, but I can sense that my skin barrier is a bit broken, so it's best to stop and heal and my skin type is oily
alr I got the same skin type. How severe was ur acne before tret.
Not very severe, but it's a bit noticeable, I had a thread in september with a photo of my skin, but it's 10Γ better now
Bro tret is life, even if I had perfect skin, I would use it for anti aging and hair is also fixable if you start early enough and don't have super agressive mpb
yeah
in the usa u can just buy it at stores, but in the eu its prescription only
Heard mixed things about tret idk tbh
For me tret helped with acne, I was actually a bitch and didn't want to take accutane, the only brutal side effect is hair loss and I always had thin hair, making it thinner would literally looksmin me hard, trading a problem for other problem is not worth
That sucks isnβt it
Some part of me wants to continue tret, but the smart move would be to wait for my barrier to fully heal and restart sadly
how effective is it and is ur acne completely gone, what's ur skin type btw
its hella effective, all I've got is scars left over which are fading rn and I had oily skin.
16, i wouldnt pair it with salicylic acid, i just use a foaming cleanser and the adapalene afterwards, and a moisturizer if my skin get dry
Building up to tret daily seems impossible
bruh keep going even if ur skin gets flakey retard. its part of the retinisation process, as long as u moisturise very very heavily ur goodBuilding up to tret daily seems impossible
I know it has to get flakey, but whenever moisturizer stings it means moisture barrier is comprimised and you will just get more irritation
moisturise use an emollient and keep doing it
But by this logic wouldn't starting daily and then kepping the skin super moisturized eventually work?
So it was stupid when I started 2 times a week because eventually I build up, but I still got irritated?
wait till a holidy and do it everyday. u dont really need to build up bro. it wil ruin ur skin short term but quicker u get used to it the better results longer term
Ok thanks for the tip, have you ever done it the same?
yeah first time i used it ever it cucked my skin. now its fine
Oh ok, I see, but how long did it took for your skin to adapt and not get flakey?
a month
