How long it would take for my skin to stop being flaky and peeling?

annavilla
I have been taking Retin A for about 5 months now I started with 0.025 for the first 3 months and now on 0.05%. My skin has been peeling still I was wondering how long it would take for my skin to stop being flaky and peeling? At 3 months it had kinda stopped since my skin was getting used to the 0.025% but now I’m on 0.05%.
