I get sebaceous filaments after applying Retin-A?

December 7, 2017
Asked By:jmadan in India, IN

I am 40 year guy, I just started with twice a week retin A(0.05%, buffered with Cetaphil moisturizer). The main problem is that I get sebaceous Filaments in chin area, which fade away after 4-5 days if I not reapply retin A. Is there any recommendations to avoid sebaceous Filaments?
