I always see people saying that Tretinoin is the best topical solution for acne but tazarotene exists. The only reason I can think of for why people don’t mention it as much is because since it’s stronger it can cause more harm at the start than Tret.

Trifarotene needs to be talked about more. 4th generation retenoid, less irritation, shorter breaking-in period, etc.

Why wasn’t Tret good for u
I personally couldn’t handle the shedding process , and it took me a long while to recover from it

Never been on any. It just sounds safer and better overall in theory. Good testimonials online.
