SanaaPlease 🙏 🙏, what did you do or use for your upper eyelids?! Mine have drooped so much over the past two years, and I really don’t want to have surgery
MuselyWhile these are great tips, we also recommend reaching out to your designated doctor for additional treatment advice and guidance! We are here to support you every step of the way!
callyeWhat is your routine? It sounds like you need a lower concentration, frequency or method to application. Worst case, tretinoin just doesn’t work for your skin. I would stop, let your skin recover and reintroduce it slowly - 1 to 2 times a week and build from there. You don’t need the highest concentration or application 7 nights/week to get good results. If you keep pushing through just bc it’s prescribed a certain way, you will end up in a worse position than you started.
LauraTry the sandwich method! Layer it over a good face cream. Honey Cloud Or Halo by Farmacy are my go to. I have a hard time not peeling with Tret.
SherryThis gives me so much hope for my own skin! Thanks for sharing!
Jackieyou look so much younger than your actual age. your skin looks so smooth and beautiful.
✨Sunny✨· Author@Sibrena LaCrossThank you so much!!🥰 You as well❣️You are so kind❤️ YES!! I too would love to keep in touch since we’re both going through a very similar situation. Thank you!!🙏💕🌷🌸
Alicia@Tiana Thanks. I am hoping after 60 to 90 days my doctor will let me go to twice a day. I am once a day and Spot cream nightly. Keep it up. Your skin looks great
Tiana · Author@Alicia LemonsI do the pill 2x a day
RacyStacy I saw a huge difference between week 10-12. One day I just woke up and the circles were gone. Just stick with it a bit longer. Also, I do notice my circles will come back depending on meds and diet so something to be mindful of
MariaHave you considered incorporating a UV protector into your routine?
Musely offers an Aging Repair Cream that may assist with skin tone and hydration.
Dawn· Author@Lorena Vegathey had me on the desire formula and then the Tinder formula about about every every three months or so. I've been using it for two years but definitely not consistently. Honestly, maybe two or three times a week if I'm being honest and then I probably stopped for six months or so. I don't think it ever got darker when I would stop thankfully.
MariaYou have great results!!
LorenaWhich prescription do you have? And did it get darken once you took a break?
Great results!
callyeYes! I hope this works out better for you since you only have isolated spots. The skin around lips is thinner so take your time & don’t be afraid to take a break if you notice your skin is getting irritated. It’s not a set back to stop for a few days instead of pushing through and creating a new problem. I’ve had to back off treatment of my mouth area a few times and it still balanced out nicely. A good moisturizer, consistency and some time, I’m sure you’ll get the results you’re looking for. Good luck!
Bushra· Author@Alicia Lemonsthank you so much for the affirmation it truly helps to have a community a fee that you can speak to when you’re going through the exact same experience especially because the spot isn’t on my face on my patient’s husband very thin pun intended
Bushra· Author@Jackie Almno not the bottom lip I’m talking about the upper lip area where you see that where you see that dark spot on the upper left-hand side of my face that dark spot essentially my upper lip is what I’m talking about that dark spot I had preemptively used the muesli cream when there were some dryness and a subtle dark spot and then now it’s like worsen over the past two months and I’m hoping that now using the Vaseline cream and only spot treating it but surrounding the rest of it with Vaseline I can get rid of it, fingers crossed
callyeWere the lines there before you started the Spot Cream? I use M+ and my skin did a similar thing before flaking or resolving. Not to this extent but my skin looked crinkly.
✨Sunny✨Which formula of the spot cream are you using? The M+ has Tretinoin in it which helps for wrinkles and the HQ for dark spots.
RebeccaThe aging repair cream is really a game changer for lines and wrinkles. But u might want the anti aging cream also for the overall appearance of the skin. I use both of them and it has really helped the overall appearance of my skin.
