Anything I should know before hopping on? I was thinking about using microneedling alongside tret for collagen boost.

use spf 50 pa++++ sunscreen everyday
start slow like twice a week and slowly build up to everyday
only use a pea sized amount
avoid applying close to eyes mouth and around the nose

like this but you can apply onto nose just not around it
use a thick moisturiser like vanicream

0.5mm for micro-needling , and for tret if it’s your first time using a retinoid : first week use it twice , second week three times at night ofc and so on to build tolerance , use spf cause it’ll make your skin more sensitive . Now give solution

I've heard tret thins the skin, is that true?

kinda but it’s not a bad thing , it makes it more sensitive cause it regenerates at a higher speed but that’s exactly what we want

So do I avoid applying it on my under eye area
Yeah it’s generally advised to avoid under eye area , i do it though cause my skin did not show any sign of irritation towards it

I've been using tretinoin for months. The only thing it does is peel your skin and give you a gay glow.

If you have acne, switch to isotretinoin or GHK.CU, or if you want to use something topical, use tazarotene.

Honestly my skin is fine, I just want to increase my collagen then I'll hop off. My friends did get good clear skin and honestly I have very little breakouts here and there.

It's known for causing thin skin, if you apply it near your nose it'll look like you have a flat maxilla (you can search up many pics of tret transformations especially Asian ppl. It made their flat maxilla even more visible.) for eyes it'll cause hollowness

ghk-cu is the right answer, the purge of tretinoin is brutal man

i was talking about tret not sunscreen
you dont wanna put it next to nose and eyes because it causes a lot of irritation
