Hi, I am little bit concerned and not sure why my doctor decided to apply Retinal and 1 minute later chemical sunscreen in the office right after he finished microneedling I am concerned if Retinal was not too hard for the skin or if it is doing some damage inside? Same concern for the chemical sunscreen - still absorbed after Retinal? The retinal cream is from DP dermaceuticals (not sure which of 2 that are available now)thanks!
