When you begin any new skincare regimen, you should usually give a minimum of six weeks for your skin to adjust. Retin-A is no different. Sometimes it may even take a bit longer. The important thing to keep in mind with Retin-A is not to overdo it. If your skin hurts or is peeling too much, skip a couple days. Just like with soap, using too much Retin-A strips your skin of natural oils and creates an overproduction of oil to compensate, often causing breakouts. My advice: use this product only once a day in a very thin layer, use a gentle exfoliant in the morning (to get rid of dead skin from Retin-A), and follow with an oil-free moisturizer (I recommend Avalon Organics oil-free vitamin C). If you do not give this enough time, you will never know for sure whether or not it works for you.
no there is no natural subsitute for a retin-a

Dr. Allen Kligman is the man that discovered Retin-A.
It is not advisable to use other anti-aging products if you are using Retin-A. Along with the Retin-A, use plenty of sunscreen and a good moisturizer at night.
How long does it take to work
Retin A
It is Spanish for Retin A
Retin-A is usually not used with Accutane. It is not because one counteracts the other one, though. It is because using Retin-A can cause increased skin irritation when used with Accutane. You don't need any more skin irritation!
