My stretch marks are getting worse from Retin-A, what can I do? (Photos)

Question

I had a baby almost 2 months ago and I’ve been putting on 0.0025% Retin-A cream for a month and a half and my stretch marks are getting so much worse. Is it one of those it gets worse before it gets better situations or should I stop using it?

Hi marylandgirl12345678, Retin-A works wonderfully for certain conditions but in your case,microneedling with PRP may give better results. Please go to a board-certified doctor with proven success in this area. Although microneedling may take several sessions, it helps induce collagen growth so that the appearance of stretchmarks are greatly diminished.All the best, Justin Harper, M.D.
