I started using Differin in May, but I now realize Differin also contains Adapalene. Should I be worried about sun exposure while using Differin/adapaline? I noticed the container says not to use it on sunburns, but nothing about not using it in the sun.
I use the cream at night, but I also realize that it's a long term treatment... and as such just because I use it at night, does not mean the sensitivity is gone in the morning/day.

I got Differin from the doctor and used it for 6 months with no results. Is he to young to start to serious ritual? He is adopted and his birth mom has very serious acne. He is very worried about all these pimples. He started getting them at nine. The doctor told me they aren't really acne but I forgot what he called them so I could look them up.
Since I turned 25, I started getting pimples here and there. The acne worsened throughout the year into cystic acne on the cheeks when I moved overseas. I lived overseas for a year, then moved back to the states, where all my acne disappeared for two months. It returned again slowly, starting out with a small rash (which went away with Desonide Cream .05%), then milia/whiteheads all over my cheeks, and then red pimples with white pus spreading from my cheeks to my chin now.
Hello,
What your sister is having is cheek wrinkle or a lower cheek wrinkle more precisely. Your sister can consult a cosmetologist and discuss the option of dermafillers. Other treatment methods include prescription acid creams or peels, stronger retinoids such as Retin A, Botox( botulinum toxin) ,non invasive or carbon dioxide laser and a surgical facelift.
Is it like a wrinkle? People get a wrinkle from wiping the nose upward because it is itching or running, as with allergies.
In June of 2009 I began feeling a foreign body sensation in my right eye and in bright sunlight could see a wrinkle leading from the caruncle/bulbar area of the eye up towards the iris, but stopping AT the iris. I experience the foreign body sensation daily and sometimes it creates outright pain. I realize it probably rubs on my lower lid and also disrupts my tear film thus causing more discomfort.
I saw two doctors - one said not to worry about the wrinkling as it is "normal.
Ok so I have been prescribed differin gel for "acne" problems. I recently had a huge one with deep cyst (when i touch it i can feel hardness under the skin)...then it formed a white head and oozed a lot of pus (and some blood) after which it stopped being painful. My question is can I still keep on applying differin gel on top of the acne even though it's "broken" skin? The differin seems to help calm the inflammation pretty quick and dry it out...
No IOL works for everyone. Use the search feature and archives and read about "dysphotopsia" if neither your surgeon or a consultant can find anything wrong that may be the problem. There is a surgeon Sam Masket MD in Los Angeles that specializes in post IOL surgery problems. It might be worth seeing him. He is also an expert in treatment of dysphotopsia.

About 3 months later I got a lens bag wrinkle in one eye. I went and seen the surgeon who did a yag laser treatment on one eye this left me with a small stardust. I went back and seen the surgeon who said the yag size and condition of the lens are good. Im putting of getting the other one done until I can find out what's causing the star burst.
Differin is especially effective when used in conjunction with oral treatment such as antibiotics or anti-androgens (for females only).
he said since i been taking minocycline 100 mg daily for 2 years and using the retin a micro 0.1% for 2 years and im still breaking out i should try something new like it may be wearing off....he put me on oracea 40mg once a day and differin gel 0.3%....i was reading the paper that comes with oracea~doxycycline and it says it doesnt kill bacteria now im getting worried because minocycline does kill bacteria now im worried i will break out more from the oracea.
Hello,
Do not use any alpha hydroxy acid products (those containing glycolic or lactic acid), salicylic acid products, retinoids (Retin A, Renova, Differin and Tazorac) and other topical acne medications such as benzoyl peroxide for 72 hours after the treatment. Also any scarubbing or acne soaps should be avoided for atleast 1 week after the miscrodermabrasion procedure.
Night vision while watching TV is not that well and long distance night time vision is even worse, especially driving. I was told that I had a wrinkle and that it could get better or worse. Possible options were getting glasses at night or having ths surgery done over again, which requires a much larger incision and most likely stitches. Thinking of getting a second opinion.
He gave me differin and it worked ok.While i was using the differin i was working all summer long outside and usually wore a hat.Well two years later ever since my forehead is my natural skin color which is pale.The rest of my face is very red.I have very oily skin and my skin breaksout if i put lotion or toners on it usually.Is there any advise on how to get my skin to even out and get this redness to go away.Please help.
A few years ago I had a horrible case of acne and was put on the Doryx pill for 3 weeks, wash with Brevoxyl 2x day, morning Tazorac topical and evening Duac topical. This combination cleared up all of my acne and dark spots in a month !!! So after two months I weened myself off of the topicals. Everything was fine.
About 2 years later, I had another bad breakout. I have really oily skin, lots of white and blackheads and acne scarring (dark spots) resulted from these pimples.
The surface of the retina can also wrinkle or pucker because the gel is not there up against it to keep it smooth.
He even said that my retina had healed so well that it was hard to see where the tear had been! During my exam today he said there was a small wrinkle on the retina. I was so shocked, I didn't ask any questions! Should I be worried? He also asked me if I was ok with the balance difference between my two eyes? (R -4.25 +.075, 010, +2.50; L -3.75, Sphere, +2.50). Again, I'm like "what??
