Just started Retin-A...how long before I see results?

[zzirvingj]

I've been taking it for 2 weeks now, and I take it every other day instead of every day. I heard it can take 6-9 weeks before you see results but I'm not sure if that's for people who are using it every day or not?

If you used Retin-A, what were your results and how long did it take for you to see a difference? Since I'm not peeling very badly (I use Emu oil after applying it at night), I'm thinking of using it more frequently.

Any thoughts/suggestions?

When I was using Retin-A consistently, I used it every 3 days with Emu oil as the moisturizer and could see the results of smoother skin in about 4 weeks and decreased hyperpigmentation (using in conjunction with Tri-Luma) in about 8 weeks.
But if you're using it every other day, you may see results sooner than 6 to 8 weeks. I'd recommend not using it everyday, I think what you're doing now is good.

Now I just use it at the onset of a pimple and Retin-A dries that sucka right up:lachen:
