Here is the first week I started and how it’s looking! How long has it taken you all to see your skin get better. I’m on .025% & 15% AA!

This is my skincare routine:

AM -
light therapy with therabody face mask; panoxyl face wash;
anua azaelic acid;
dalba sunscreen;
ciele makeup

PM -
garnier micellar water;
prequel oil face wash;
cerve salicylic face wash;
prescribed 15% azaelic acid;
prescribed .025% tretinoin;
astrua face cream

This is from February to now. I’m finally on tretinoin (I started 2 weeks ago!!) I tried everything before tretinoin.

I’ve never had acne until I started law school and started breaking insanely. I got blood work done and everything is ok including hormones. My acne has not gone away after almost trying everything. My doctor prescribed me with .025% tretinoin so I’m hoping in a few months I can add my updated pictures to this!! BTW I eat and maintain a healthy lifestyle. I have been off dairy too! If anyone has any tips or advice they are well welcomed!
