No crystal ball.: Patients ask me all the time how long they will have to continue treatment; my standard answer is, "my crystal ball is broken." everyone is different, so treatment duration can never be predicted accurately. Fortunately, there is no time limit for tretinoin cream; it can be used for as long as it takes to achieve a result that you're happy with.
