TRETINOIN THREAD 5

[rae]

^ Yung prescription sakin ng dermatologist before...

Cleanser, anti-bacterial toner, CHAT 2%, a hydroquinone cream (aka blender) mixed with retinoic acid.

There are products na mixed na din ang tretinoin and HQ, so I'm inclined to believe na ok lang sila ng sabay...

[brit_brit]

mga sis, ask ko lang kung available ba ang Differin 0.3 gel sa pinas?

[KittiEKittiE]

The best Tretinoin for me is the one in Belo. Tuyo na lahat ng pimples ko.

[rae]

^^ Differin is available here. But I don't know if both cream and gel type ones are available.

[kwang sun]

[crazycoolchic19]

3mos nako sa derm a, walang flaking, mag shift na ko sa other paubos na rin kase derm a ko.

[littlekinselle]

I rested my face for 2 months,. gusto ko ulit mag tret di kaya ako mag purging ulit ako? hmmm ang tret diba  di siya nakakawala ng pimple marks?

[eischied_21]

^Nawawala naman yun dark pimple marks ko while on tret kaya lang it takes time. Tret na lang yun ginagamit ko now and toner (hada labo) plus sunblock every morning and so far it's doing great. No major breakout.

[break_free]

Meron ba ditong naka Hydroquinone + Tretinoin na toner/astringent + Hydroquinone + Tretinoin na face cream from BCP? Thanks! Tinatry ko kasi yun ngayon eh. Kumikinis naman face ko, namumula nga lang. Wondering lang baka may iba na naka under sa regimen na ito.

[crazycoolchic19]

^ sis babyface ba yan tret mo?


any users here of babyface tret? feedback naman

[Senorita fifi]

Question: what is the difference between OTC tretinoin from the one that the dermas are selling plus the one frm ZOObagi (which is super expensive). I mean does it really matter? in terms of effect and strength?

[break_free]

crazycoolchic19, nope sis BCP po.

[rae]

Senorita Fifi, the difference among all types of tretinoin is the carrier base.

Yung sa mga dermas naman, many of them have their tretinoin formulated at chem labs and have it packaged with their name on it.

Some naman, repackaged versions ng OTC ones.

ZOObagi, hmmm, I see Obagi as a brand name. So you're sort of just buying their brand of tretinoin. I remember WickedWitchoftheWest's post on this. She already tried the Obagi tretinoin and mas ok daw for her yung Retacnyl.
