After applying retino on my face for nearly 5 days i got my pimples really down.but now i want to maintain it.plese suggest me a way out to avoid it!

Follow-up: I take it that a retinoic acid preparation is clearing your acne and want to know about maintenance. You are likely to be on this for a few years and can try tapering from time to time. Or your physician may add topical clindamycin, or a low dose of a systemic antibiotic for maintenance.
