Has anyone who has used Retin A topical cream seen any good results for Acne? How long did it take for you to see these results and did it make your face red and peely?

Peeling is a fairly common complaint in using Retin A.

Hopefully some users will pipe in here, too, but in the meantime, here's a page of multiple reviews of it by users:

I just found this site and am really intrigued by reading everyone's comments about different treatments. I have considered myself an expert when it comes to skincare and am really excited about this forum.

Anyway... Rentin-A is probably the best thing you can do for your skin. It really makes a major difference in almost all problems from acne, pigmenation, wrinkles, etc. to basic skin health maitnenance. You have to be ready to go through a six to eight week period of a lot of peeling. There will be lots of redness and lots of peeling and discomfort, but the results are well worth it. It has been a big part of my treatments for years and my skin is super smooth and attractive.

Retin-A is known to improve skin texture and tone, but it doesn't work for everyone. If you use a higher concentration of this drug, you may experience dryness and irritation. I recommend using a lower concentrations of Retin-A cream to minimize any irritation.
