A member asked:

Can i use tretinoin cream 0.025 on whole face?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Retin a (tretinoin): yes you can apply retin a (tretinoin) to your whole face. It is prescribed for treatment of acne and it reduces oil glands in the skin. Be careful not to get it in your eyes.

Dr Seibert and 7 doctors agreed
