Comparing Adapalene Topical vs Differin

For Acne Adapalene worsens acne first two weeks but you have to be patient because wanted results may need up to 3 months to appear , I am a drug information specialist at a dermatology hospital and I realized that our patients get less flakes and dryness when washing out adapale after 15 minutes to half an hour , sometimes after 2 hrs that what most consultants in our hospital advice patients with.

For Acne I'm 43 yrs old and I have struggled with acne since my teens. I've tried many over the counter and prescription remedies. About four months my dermatologist prescribed doxycycline, clindamycin in the morning and differin at night. It took about a month before I started seeing a difference. This is the most effective treatment I've ever used. I have no active pimples. I do have some spotting from prior breakouts. My Dr. Prescribed hydroquinone also for the spots,but advised me to wait until the acne calms down before treating the spots. I barely needed to treat the spots by then the had lightened from the differin! Overall the texture of my skin looks better. However I do have 1 con. I have developed a light streak on one cheek.

For Acne I needed to share an honest review. I got differin to get rid of these stubborn invisible pimples around my chin. Basically they're clogged pores. They appeared even though I wash my face daily and nightly and exfoliate regularly with expensive products. Then I found differin. I've been on it about 3 weeks now. Although I have gotten breakouts all over, my forehead is it's clearest it's been. The pores on my cheeks are getting smaller and clearer. My nose has practically no problem areas anymore. The invisible pimples/clogged pores are subsiding dramatically. I am getting breakouts in those areas but my face looks radiant anyway.

For Acne I've had acne for about 12 years now since I'm 13 years old. I have tried different things including Proactive and Acne Free along with some other prescription medications. Nothing ever cleared it 100 percent. I have been using Differin gel 0.03% for a little over two weeks now. At first my face was dry and broke out worse then normal. The last few days my face has gotten better, I have about 5 blemishes rather then 12 large cysts that I would normally have. I am hoping that the rest clear up soon. I notice my acne scars have gotten better looking as well since using Differin. I am super excited to see the coming weeks progress.
