Question 1

I'm currently on a low dose of isotretinoin, and it's really cleared up my acne. My skin's looking radiant and much fairer lately. I'm curious, does isotretinoin actually help with brightening your complexion? Also, my doctor mentioned switching to tretinoin gel after stopping Accutane. Will tretinoin help me keep this glow and maintain my skin tone?

Accepted Answer

Tretinoin will help you maintain that glow and skin tone after you stop isotretinoin. It continues the process of exfoliating the skin, preventing new acne, and improving skin texture and tone.
Just ensure you follow your dermatologist's advice carefully regarding how to introduce tretinoin and remember to always protect your skin with sunscreen.
