Asked By:ahdo

I'm using retinol from 3 months and now i made my first Ematrix treatment for shallow scars ,but I didn't stop using retinol before the treatment & i read now that I should avoid retinol/retinoid creams 1weeks prior to an ematrix treatment. Im so afraid It will make a problem to my face ?? Also i was made moderate chemical peeling with jessner solution for pours but that for that i get shallow scars.
