Tretinoin is OVERRATED.

[Kojo]

TRETINOIN IS SO OVERRATED AND IS A SUBHUMAN VERSION OF ACCUTANE.

Genuinely if someone wants to blow my mind, explain to me how the fuck Tretinoin is good, at least compared to Accutane.

Even Tazarotene mogs this bullshit lmfao, and yes I'm exaggerating a bit for the point. It's still a good skin compound regardless.

But genuinely that means fuck all when we have easily accessible products that are better like Accutane and Tazarotene. It's like taking MK-677 and saying "YEAH!! IT'S A GOOD COMPOUND IT ELEVATES GH LEVELS!!!" Yeah but just take the fucking hgh dude

+ it really doesn't do as much as people make it out to. It's a benign treatment to pih and pie if we were to speak on post-accutane course treatment, but ultimately if what you have left is serious copenoin isn't gonna help fix that at least as fast.

You're better off doing actual procedures like chemical peels, Laser or IPL. Goes perfectly with a post accutane course, your skin will glow and be like glass.

Maybe for skin maintenance you'd use it but literally just use tazarotene instead, it's godly and much better than Tretinoin even at 0.05% Taz.

Accutane even without acne is a big looksmax. It shrinks pores which has a significant role in how your skin looks and feels, you could low dose it as maintenance.

It also does everything tret does as it's a literal retinoid but instead it's systemic. You still get the skin cell turnover upregulation effect you'd get from tretinoin, it's also not a hassle to apply. There's no reason you'd use tret over accutane.

IF you're gonna use tret without acne, just use tazarotene.

You're on looksmax.org, every piece of sauce is already out there on this forum. You can easily with a snap of your fingers buy accutane and/or taz. Unless you're in europe (excluding france and belgium) it's a little trickier but still easy it's just more expensive.

what is a low maintenance dose?

If you're talking about isotret, 5-10mg is a good cruising dose.

If you're talking about taz I'd cruise at 0.05%. This % is already better than 0.1% tret.

for acne nothing is better than isotret but for uneven skin tones, huperpigmentation fine lines and anti aging it’a the golden standard tbh.Almost everything else except taz is cope tier compared to it

Water, but as I was saying, for things like skin tone issues and hyperpig you're better off doing either of the 3 procedures listed. Results are practically instant.
