Tretinoin usage

[ktostam23]

I have been on tret for like 1.5 months i dont really notice much for now its 0.025% but gonna up it to 0.05% i only see sloghtly more sebum like coming out of my pores on my chin but not any breakouts or strong purging

0.025% literally does nothing use 0.1% at least on tret or opt for tazarotene

yes get on 0.05, 0.025 does work but its way slower and since uve been on 0.025 ur skin has adapted to it so 0.05 shouldnt cause any issues, u might even be able to get on 0.1% eventually just listen to ur skin more strength isnt ALWAYS better, but it is if ur skin can tolerate it ofc.
