tretinoin causes initial thinning due to increased skin turnover frequency, underlying wrinkles might get more noticeable but its supposed to thicken that thin skin more in the long term.

That's interesting, but not surprising. There has been a lot of negativity around retinoids causing 'thinning skin' over the years, and it's definitely not something to worry about.

I'm not using it everyday, just 3 times a week. I want to make sure I use the best, most effective and strongest stuff

Just make sure you are watching out for peeling, sensitivity and redness. You have to monitor your skin, and make sure that you are training your skin to behave, not torturing your skin to behave.

How long have you been using retinol for ikarus?

Yeah it sucks big time, they are really noticeable, i have been needling under my eyes for ages and still no results, don't know if they are permanent or not. I used to have bad forehead lines years and years ago, within 6 months of needling they were completely gone, my eyes don't seem to be responding though.

Didn't retin-A help forehead lines?

I used it on and off for some time, but now there has been consistent use for nine months. It's definitely a great decision to make, although I have a preference for retinol rather than tretinoin. I do have some retinol recommendations, which I am sure people will love.

I have some roc deep wrinkle cream lying about somewhere, cost me £25. You tried that before?

@Admin ; I got 58 dislikes within 1 hour by a newly created account @Mother_of_Shiseido . I request you to find his IP/ MAC address and delete his main account.

Likelihood is that the account is either yours or DHTcel's. I am suspecting it's the second options account, because he has an extensive history of creating accounts using other peoples usernames. And b**ch, try getting almost two-thousand dislikes within two days.

10mg tamoxifen = 60mg raloxifene in terms of T increase (25%)
20mg tamoxifen increases T by 50%
but 20mg tamoxifen prevents gyno as much as 60mg raloxifene

idiot check ur notifications, ive been up all night disliking ur posts 24/7 lmfaooooo

as for @Father_of_Shiseido i will freely do what he asks me to, he never betrayed me
I already have a gland formed in the left nipple .. 10mg tamox is just to prevent it from developing further. I'm still scratching for raloxifene.

Would that regimen work for maintenance?

@Ikarus remove the dislikes from @Father_of_Shiseido 's account or me and my teletubby crew will run a train on your like to dislike ratio!

It's obviously DHTcel that gives you dislikes and now he's trying to frame Ikarus for it, he kinda gave him self away right after your message, and at the same time he gives you likes with all his other accounts so you won't suspect it's him, this is how this guy operates...

What recommendations do you have? I switched from tretinoin to retinol and it seems like my skin likes it more, also any sunscreen recommendations would be nice.
