How long should I wait to use tretinoin after microneedling?

Reliable572916
Hi, I recently purchased an at home micro needling kit and it has .5 mm needles. I also use .05 tretinoin at home every night. How long should I wait to use the tretinoin after the micro needling? Also should I skip the tretinoin the night before I micro needle? I wasn't sure if the rules were different since the needles are so small. Thank you!
