One Gal's Journey With Retin-A

I created this blog because I am starting a Retin-A regimen, for its anti-aging effects, and couldn’t find a day-to-day depiction on the web. I hope you find my journey informative and useful. I am assuming readers already have basic knowledge of Retin-A. I encourage you to educate yourself thoroughly(!) before making a decision on whether Retin-A is the right path for you to take. Consult with a physician, dermatologist or plastic surgeon; you will need a prescription anyway.

Days Following Third Application

I’ve still had no noticeable negative reaction. Maybe after this week if I still have no adverse reactions I will add Sunday to my regimen.

Used ProActive one more time but have not used the Clarisonic again. I also used Philosophy-Microdelivery Exfoliating Wash one day with no ill effect.

Noticed three more acne breakouts - for a total of 5 currently. I usually do not have this many at one time so my assumption is that the Retin-A is causing this. The breakouts' appearance is typical for me; red, slightly swollen, slightly painful to the touch.
