    The Tretinoin is likely what contributing to the itching. You need to ease into using it, like every other day, and slowly build up to every day, if that. There WILL be itching when starting it! Also, 2 months is too soon to see results, it takes more than that to build up the collagen, maybe even 6 months. I've used Tretinoin since I was 25 for acne, which when away after a few weeks, and now at 51 I still use it. It has definitely helped me grow older gracefully...the only "wrinkles" I have are VERY fine lines around my eyes. I hope all gets better, but give the Tretinoin a chance, it's not an immediate fix, but in later years you'll be glad you stuck with it!

    Wow...I just had vbeam done yesterday, and there's no bruising at all. So sorry you have to deal with this.
