Tretinoin on upper eyelids

[alpomer7]

So I've been applying tret on upper eyelids for more than a week now, they all fucked up and swollen, like my upper eyelid exposure is insane rn, can't fully open my eyes even.

Do I push thru or is it permanent? Applied some hydrocortisone and it got somewhat better.

bro in what world did you think that applying tret on your upper eyelids was a good idea

I saw some good results with reducing upper eyelid exposure, but very few because barely anyone applies it there

i mean theoretically if your pushing through with the same amount then it might get to the point where maybe even an infection is going to occur because typically tret heavily reduces moisture in skin right? Maybe reduce the amount your doing and still go through with it.

Yea I will try to get 0.025

I moisturising it there, just wonder if anyone here had good results with tret on upper eyelid or if it's completely pointless. I seen few people with good results and other ppl saying it's surgery, but also everyone advices against it bcos it causes dry eyes, but I already have it so don't care much
