After looking up tretinoins effectiveness online and experiencing some of its negative effects i scheduled an appointment with a cosmetic dermatologist for this Tuesday. Based on my picture what would be a more efffective treatment for my mild sun damage microdermabrasion or light chemical peels?
Hello,
From the photo you have posted, tretinoin may take quite some time. This dryness can be due to the side effect of the tretinoin also. Avoid using any lotions and creams over the face for the meantime. Wash your face with a mild cleanser with moisturizing properties like Cetaphil. Pat your face dry. Then apply a good hypoallergenic moisturizer over the area also.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
