A member asked:
Is starting off on retin-a 0.025% too weak for forehead wrinkles? never been on it before. is it always best to start off on lowest percentage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: I tell my patients besides starting at the lowest percentage use every other night for a few days and slowly progress to every night. The problem is dryness redness and flaking of the skin. It turns a lot of patients off and I find the slow approach is better tolerated.
