"28 year old female. suffer from cystic acne. i get big painful cysts under the skin. around my jaw line and all over my chin. i would get two or three in the same place at a time. also my skin is very oily. most likely caused by hormones and stress. absolutely no over the counter medicines worked. i have been using tretin. 025 gel not cream for about 2 weeks now and have not had 1 new cyst or pimple. my skin is peeling a little but it looks so much better already. i highly recommend the gel for cystic acne with super oily skin like mine. also my skin is not sensitive so i use it every night with no problems."
