Redness caused by acne medication.
I have redness from tretinoin cream, and I still have acne. I have EXTREMELY sensitive skin. Now my forehead is red and I still have acne. If I use it the acne goes away but my skin is really red. And if I stop using it the comes back and the redness is still there. I'm using really sensitive face washes and lotions on my face.
You have developed sensitivity to tretinoin. Please stop using it. A lot of people don't tolerate tretinoin. There are substitutes. But right now the irritation from The cream has to be treated. Don't use soap or facewash also. Please call me or send photos using online consult option for proper examination diagnosis and treatment advice
