I have problems with rashes in the t zone and redness on my cheeks. I use 15% azelaic acid in the form of a gel, can I somehow combine it?

yes

azelaic acid applied AM

tretinoin applied PM

dont forget to wait 10 minutes and apply moisturizer

also use spf50 because tretinoin makes your skin more sensitive to the sun

you can start at any strength i started at 0.1% but it gave me alot more dryness and peeling skin so id recommend starting with 0.025% or 0.05%,your lips might crack abit so i would recommend lipbalm/vaseline.use along side a moisturiser,you can do the sandwhich method but i personallu dont.
