You don't do anything to them. Just keep using ur regular routine and apply Retin-A on them. |

What exactly does Retin A do? My aunt recommended it to my mom. It did an amazing job on her and it fades her freckles and wrinkle!
I just got a tube from my Doctor to treat my acne. So I should use it before applying my daily moisturizer? |

Retin-A stimulates collegen production and cell turnover rate. This is why it works on winkles and acne. If you have the prescription Retin-A then it is really strong, I think you can put it on before or after. Doesn't really matter. If you never used it before, you should start slow. Only a couple of times per week. See how your skin feels and slowly increase the frequency.
I hope this helps. |

Yeah, Retin A accelerates cell turnover. So your skin will peel like mad for a while. But it will be so smooth and shiny. I used to hear that it would make skin smooth like it was burned, but that may've been before they tweaked the formula, or the person I was talking to had a very high concentration of retin A.
It will also soften stubborn blackheads, so you can squeeze them out with little pressure. |
