"okay i just switched from using differen which helped my skin but didn&#039;t completely cure it. i have always had mild to moderate acne. i went to my dermatologist and  i started using retin-a every other night for the past weeks and few days. i&#039;m breaking out like there&#039;s no tomorrow. this is awful and i have to go to school during this. i really hope this is just the initial breakout, and i&#039;m not one of the people who end up saying this left my skin worse then when i started. i&#039;m going to give it another month or two."
