Skin damage from Retin A

June 29, 2017
Asked By:bellehp in London, GB

I'm a 29 year old female and started using retin A when I was 28. I wasn't prescribed it from a dermatologist or doctor but after doing some extensive research I decided to purchase it from abroad. After about 3months using it I noticed I was getting more wrinkles, especially under my eyes and forehead. My pores become very large and my overall skin texture became like that of an orange peel. I stopped using it for about 3months and the damage did not reverse. Please, please help!!
