This is irrelevant to the video but I wanted to say a big thank you! I did your technique with aquaphor and gloves to moisturise my hands. Finally something actually worked to make the skin super soft and not only that – I had a negative reaction on my hand due to expired liquid lipsticks and it hasn’t disappeared with anything I tried a lot of things but this removed all of it just after one use, no scaring no dryness. THANK YOU!!!!!! ❤❤❤
I have seen a doc prescribing adaplene for 1 hour like this.Well Im glad that I was able to get used to adaplene and tretinoin faster than i imagined. I started adaplene in November and then tretinoin 0.25% in December. I didnt have much reaction to tret as I had with adaplene.
Is your skin supposed to look older before looking younger with retin -A? Seems to loosen my skin like saggy, but once I stop using it, my skin goes back to normal. Then I try restarting it again and the same thing happens. What gives🤔
Honestly. Same. Lol. I feel like when I use it nightly or several nights in a row, my skin up close looks pretty… I dunno… Just textured and not so good. But then if I take a few days break in between and if I just go about my normal skin care, some steam room and sauna, and I notice my skin looks really great. So I think I’m gonna start using it overnight every three days and see if that works. I’ve been on it for two years now. But interesting to see your comment.
I’m going to try this. I have failed with tret so many times even after using it for months, over moisturiser building it up – everything because it just leaves my face so flaky.
Does using Retinol first for a few months then switching to tretinoin help the skin tolerate it better?
You should check out her retinol playlist. She has videos answering questions like that.
Its the perfect beginner start up. Tretinoin is so much stronger
Thanks for the tip gorgeous. What to do when I have a red dry spot on corner of eye 😭😭
Use La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Balm B5, so good for red dry spot
moisturize with something non pore clogging

Glad to hear that this helped
Wow would have never thought of this but it’s so obvious! Thank you
When should u apply moisturizer?
After you rinse it off you apply moisturizer
i kinda feel like i’m wasting the product by doing this, it’s already kinda expensive haha
I think this hack is for only if you can’t use it otherwise. There really isn’t much point in doing it if you can already use it overnight
I’ve heard from other Derms to try the sandwich method. Light lotion, then the tretinoin, then another layer of light lotion.
I’ve been using it years and it works 100% I see rivaling mustache on that T shirt! ☕️💪🏻
I use the cream like lotion wanted to bump up the dose but dr said it’s no point.
Dr. D my favorite dermatologist 🔥
thanks for watching
Perfect timing! I feel like my face is on fire and I just started with mine. Thank you!
Great hack!

Does this provide any skin benefit, or is this just for tolerance?
Yes it works , some people stick with it bc they saw same results without needing to building
It would be interesting to see your response to a recent video called, “Does Tretinoin weaken the skin”

Everything is tamed by time even our enemy the “irritation” 😂☺😇🙏💙
Rinse it off with a washcloth and just water? Or wash it off with a face wash?
Dr. Dray, you skin looks amazing. My skin is getting there with your help and of course my Dermatologist’s I see twice a year.
Thanks, Love ♥️
