Bro

How to get tret in Canada. What do I tell my Derm

Just ask for it or get a Indian mf to buy it for u from India it’s only 1.5$ per tube

Which spf would you recommend? Yeah I'm white

Care to explain?

Dark spots, acne scars, collagen production and texture, skin hydration, eye bags

my derm told me specifically not to take any other retinoids while on accutane just because it can really dry your skin which isn’t good for acne (so just ask your derm for their opinion ngl)

also in your 3rd reply, why take accutane for just scarring? just do micro needling, laser genesis, tretinoin, and/or a deep chemical peel. all will increase collagen + way better for you and sustainable (you can do it for the rest of your life).

Will add to the stack later - do you recommend any? Was thinking about the "buffet + copper peptides" by the ordinary

I would use something from https://store.reverseskinaging.com/. You can use the cream or serum at whatever strength you wish. A bit pricey tho.

Yeah sunscreen is law for you, if you’re POC I would’ve ignored

La Roche Posay has good mineral SPF, but always check ingredients.

Your dermatologist is correct, it’ll over-dry your skin and this isn’t what you want. My dumbass accidentally applied tret on the mouth area and now I’m struggling with dryness. It’ll definitely go away with Vaseline + moisturiser, it’s just annoying to deal with. Apart from that, accutane has shown some evidence of closing growth plates early; if you’re not worried about it, take it, but moderately

My major concern is having too much aha/bhas together with the retinol and vit c. What do you think?

use tretinoin daily and then use bha or aha like here and there. Thats what I do, but I use the red ordinary aha bha mask like once a week and skip tretinoin that day. I also use azelaic acid in mornings which is the best product ever made for acne and PIH
