Retin-A: Q&A
Ask a QuestionIs It Better to Use a Milder Form of Retin-A Daily, or a Stronger One and Skip Days?
I have been using Tretinoin cream .05% for 4 months, and while my skin has adjusted to it, I still can't apply it every night. If I do I get small chemical burns and my skin gets far too dry & scaly. Would it be best for me to request a milder form, such as the .01% and use it every night, or is taking 2-3 nights off a week and sticking with the .05% the way to go?
Use Retin-A a few times a week
