When are we supposed to see results when using tretinoin (stieva-a)?

Question

what i mean when i am saying "results" is the point in time where your skin has no whiteheads, blackheads, cysts or any kind of pimples. A normal skin that breaks out here and there (not a perfect skin) and that has a couple of blackheads, not tons.

We see patients regularly that want instant gratification when it comes to topical products like Retin-A.  Consider Retin-A your skin's personal trainer.  When we start a work out routine it takes time to see results.  With Retin-A it is no different.  We let our patients know that it can take several skin cycles for the build-up to come off and to reveal healthy beautiful skin.  A skin cycle is roughly 45 days.  Don't get discouraged!  When it comes to skin health and beauty nothing compares!  Be patient, healthy skin is closer than you think!
