I'm thinking of using Retino A 0.05 with Deriva CMS to tone it down a bit. Do you think that'll help with the flaking and redness that everyone talks about in the beginning? I'm really worried because I have to go to work and can't be dealing with a peeling face at the office. Could this combo work for me?

I'm currently undergoing treatment for acanthosis nigricans, and my doctor recommended using a radiofrequency technique to get rid of some small black spots under my arm. I recently moved to a new city, and I'm wondering if I can continue this treatment here. Is this something I should be concerned about when changing locations, or can I just find a local specialist to continue with the radiofrequency treatment?
