Hello from California. I must have been living under a rock because I just discovered you! I was just at my derm last week. I’m 65 let me say and skin obsessed. I have never adapted to RetinA.....no matter how many times I’ve tried.....my skin simply hurts. It’s very sensitive. So, he says....get Adapalene....you will find it less irritating. I don’t have acne but want the anti aging benefits. I ran to the drug store to buy it. I’m just at 4x a week because I still have irritation. Ugggg. I will keep plugging along here but this video was so helpful! And timely. Wish me luck!💚

The Ordinary have a wide variety of products with retinol, but I haven’t tried any of them, so I can’t give you a personal recommendation. I do like the one by The Inkey List (I have a review on my channel) that comes at a similar price point and can be introduced slowly for beginners. But in general any retinol you can get without prescription, introduced slowly (I have a video on that) should work, so pick one that you like the texture and that is affordable for beginnings.

Every Retinoid will reduce hyperpigmentation, so yes, Adapalene can help fade PIH. If it is your only concern though, or the hyperpigmentation is very stubborn, something like Hydroquinone might be more effective. You might need a prescription for that though, at least here in the EU you would.

Sun cream ? I don’t want to use hydroquinone and I am scared to use any lightening creams incase more hyperpigmentation spots develop , and is it true the stronger the retinoids you use the more irritation and the worsening of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation will happen ? Can adapalene completely get rid of PIH ? I appreciate your help doc
@DoctorAnne4 жыл бұрын
It is important to understand that any advice I can give here is general advice. For individual problems, especially if they are severe, it is necessary to see someone in person, so my advice for you would be to go and talk to a dermatologist face to face. In general, the stronger the retinoid, the higher the risk for irritation. That doesn’t equal a higher risk for PIH per se, but yes, all retinoids as well as all acids increase sun sensitivity. A sunblock with frequent reapplying and sensible sun behavior like wearing hats, seeking shade and staying out of the sun as much as possible should take care of that. For fading hyperpigmentation Hydroquinone is the ingredient with the most data on efficiency, but I understand that you don’t want to use it. Other ways to tackle hyperpigmentation is through laser treatment done by a dermatologist. Everything else, retinoids, acids etc. will help to some degree, but are not as effective. For you individually, see a dermatologist face to face and talk to them about your worries and your skin and then follow their recommendations. I am sorry if that is not the answer you are looking for, but it is all that I can safely provide on here.

Dr Anne, so retinal seems like the most potent from the over the counter retinoids, but you were saying that there is lots of data only on tretinoin and retinol which i guess suggests that it is a better chance to get results with retinol which has been proven to work than with retinal which is stronger (less conversion is needed) but NOT proven to work?

Adapalene and benzoyl peroxide are very effective in fighting acne, but they are certainly drying. My advice would be to go very gentle with everything else and focus on hydration (I have a video on how to use Tretinoin with minimal irritation that you might want to watch). The mixture is safe to use as long as you need it, you should talk to your gp or dermatologist if you want to stop using it, as the acne could come back if you do.

I'm currently purging with adapalene and I'm reaching my 4th week. How long will the purging last usually? Prior to that I have tried The Ordinary AHA BHA peeling solution for 2 months but my purging didn't stop. Then I took a break and moved on to adapalene to deal with my issues.

Hello, did anyone had the same issue with me? I have the cerave niacinamide lotion. I started using epiduo at night and on the next day I applied sunscreen +50 with salisylic acid and in the afternoon I used a cerave salicylic acid to rinse the skin and apply the cerave lotion. Once I apply the lotion the skin started getting a reaction and a bit tingling. On the next day the same thing. I understand that this shouldn't be the niacinamide, but I can't figure what. I know that salicylic acid can't be combined but they say it's fine on the next day.. also the third day my forehead developed small bumps all over. This is very strange bc my skin isn't so sensitive with most acne products.

What would cause more side effects... Differin or a retinol? I am 33 and still deal with cystic acne. I know it is hormonal (and genetic) but I want to fight it from all directions. I have Differin at home but am afraid to use it. Also think it might be a waste to start it now and get used to it and then have to quit when I want to try for a baby. So I am thinking of waiting until after pregnancies, but maybe I can start a mild option now? So my concern is both acne and aging...
@DoctorAnne3 жыл бұрын
You should speak to your doctor about it, ut in general: If you have cystic acne, there is a risk of scarring, so if you aren´t already trying for a baby, I don´t see a point in waiting. In regrads of irritation, Differin has higher irritation potential than Retinol, but less than Tretinoin. But retinol will most likely not do much for cystic acne. There really isn´t anything to be afraid of, I have a video about how to introduce Tretinoin with minimal side effects if you need some tips.

Adapalene is like a cousin to the retinol family. It is a different molecule that does not get metabolized to Retinoic Acid, but that binds to two similar receptors with a similar effect. So yes, it is kind of a retinoid. Adapalene is the ingredient, so yes, it is the same in all formulations. The different adapalene products however will differ in terms of formulation. I used Adapalene for a long time too, with great results.
