How long does it take for retin a side effects to wear off?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A few wks: Most of the time, any increase in acne that occurs after using tretinoin disappears after two to three months of treatment. If it persists for the more than three months, it's best to talk to your doctor about applying tretinoin less frequently or switching to a lower concentration cream. www.forhims.com
