There are too many long term side effects

if you know you know

just use glycolic acid, its 60-70% as effective as retin-a srs

Mortality rate is the main one I am concerned with, there was a study done, and they had to stop it because the people were dropping like flies.... (ded srs)

Just from a practical stand point for me also, it doesn't go well with the Australian sun, I'd have to bathe in sunscreen

Use retinol instead
 
and for the sunburn part "Are you sitting down? "This is one of the biggest myths out there," says Sachs. It's true that retinoids break down in sunlight, which is why they are bottled in opaque packaging and are still best worn at night to make sure they aren't rendered inactive. However, they do not make the skin more prone to sunburn. "This misconception came about because in some early studies, people described putting on a retinoid, walking into the sun, and immediately burning. But that redness is likely related to heat exposure," says Sachs. "Clinical studies have shown pretty definitively that retinoids do not lower the MED — or minimal erythemal dos — of human skin, which is the amount of UV light you can take before the skin burns."

7% is what I'm gonna buy
Perfect. The Ordinary seems to be selling 7% ones too here in Finland. I'll order some right now.

It is literally just a vitamin A derivative.

Only way it would kill you is taking isotretinion daily at super high doses.

Use retin-a when you reach your 30's....
 
This guy makes conclusions based on one single study jfl.

The people in that study were 65+ and it is unknown if they died of old age or from retin a.
 
The study was not done for mortality if I remember correctly
