Is differin gel safe to use even though i have no acne at all? could it create problems or breakouts? reason id like to use it is for fine lines/wrinkles. im a 33 year old male and im recently beginning to see small lines and wrinkles. thanks?

It apparently has been used for that purpose because it contains Vit A which stimulates collagen production. https://www.today.com/shop/dermatologists-say-differin-gel-one-best-drugstore-anti-aging-products-t174131 https://www.healthline.com/health/vitamin-a-for-skin#usage

Yes, it is safe to use, and should not cause breakouts. Use it sparingly, and only at bedtime. Your insurance probably won't cover it, though, if you're not using it for acne.
