A member asked:
What happens if i use too much retin a (tretinoin)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dry skin: Retin-a is very drying, so using too much can cause excessive dryness. Also, it makes you more sensitive to sunburn, which is why it is usually recommended to only use a small amount and always use sunscreen.
