Dry Crepey Neck Skin: Can Retin A Help? Can Anything Help? I'm a little worried about using retin A on my neck 'cause I don't want spottines to occur there and I have to be so careful with sun exposure while using retin A 'cause the spots come out more quickly than ever - this is a drawback to retin A for those with thin translucent skin -- nobody mentions this drawback but it's for real.

A: When beginning to use Retin A, often it is necessary to skip nights until one builds up a tolerance to it.

When beginning to use Retin A, often it is necessary to skip nights until one builds up a tolerance to it. This is particularly important for the neck skin. Using moisurizers on "off" nights is a good strategy. Over time one becomes used to the Retin A and can use even stronger concentrations to obtain better results. Repeated superficial chemical peels can make this process work even better. See link below.
