Just bought my first tube of Tretinoin. Help please.

[BilboBaggins123]

I've been on minoxidil and finasteride for a decade. But just bought my first tube of Tretinoin from RedBoxRX.

* Tretinoin Cream (Generic Retin-A)
* Strength .1%
* 45 grams
* $70 dollars

I hope I bought the right thing. Theres a couple papers going around claiming that Tretinoin boosts the efficacy of Minoxidil. But, a surprising lack of other media about Tretinoin. e.g. I only saw one youtube video that showed a dude applying it.

I'm assuming i just rub it into my scalp once a week and hope for the best?

Any tips welcome.

Thanks!

It's not enough. It is used before applying minoxidil.

Every time before minoxidil.

wow
i do minoxidil twice a day

some people are saying to just do tret once a week.

but i should do tret before each minoxidil applicatoin?

Tretinoin acts as a booster for minoxidil. If you want results, use it every time before minoxidil, but at least once a day.

wow

the people in the original paper only used it once a week.
