I've been dealing with this black spot on my face for about a year now. It started after I used Garner, and even though I stopped using it, the dark spot just won't go away. I'm worried and really want to get rid of it. Could you recommend any good ointments that might help clear it up?

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've been using Mintop for about 7 to 8 months and I'm wondering if it's safe to start taking Kerablak and Keraglo along with it. Is there any reason why I shouldn't combine these, or do you think there's a good chance they'll work well together? What should I watch out for if I do?
