A member asked:
Can i use retin-a all over my face or just as a spot treatment? i have oily acne prone skin and my face full of milia
A doctor has provided 1 answer
All over: Use Retin A (tretinoin) all over your face, every night before bed time. Avoid the creases of the nose and the corners of the mouth (will burn). Make sure you use sunblock in the morning, as your skin will be gradually peeling and very sensitive.
