See a dermatologist: Probably you should get oral therapy. Notice certain things about tretinoin [RetinA] and adapalene: There are various formulations and strengths. Initially they tend to be irritating but the skin will tolerate them better after a couple of weeks. Start using only 2 or 3 times a week, tiny amounts, wait 20 minutes after exposure to water, avoid all other acne products, no scrubs or harsh soaps. 2-3
