I can guarantee you this won't happen but if you're concerned then use azelaic acid and/or hydroquinone aswell
 
It was copilot buy yeah so i wont get this . And sun is my biggest enemy 😭
if anything tret will fix uneven pigments in your face. hydroquinone is the only product to worry about having rebound pigmentation. just be smart with tret, don't overdo it and don't forget to use your spf

if you wanna use hydro and tret in the same routine go for it, but i wouldn't use it on the same day bc your skin barrier would prob be irritated. azelaic acid is great for removing hyperpigmentation, and it's relatively gentle. i wouldn't use all at the same time but none of them are inherently bad

If you're new to tret I'd recommend 0.025. It's less irritating on the skin and has similar long-term results to 0.05 and even 0.1.

tret and azelaic wont give you unwanted pigment. hydro is tough bc it can cause rebound pigment if used too much.
