Differin?

Question:

i went to the dermatolgist today and she gave me differin and said to put it on at night before i go to bed. in a few days, i'm going to be outside all day on a vacation. can i still put it on at night and nothing bad happen? or should i just not put it on until i get back?

Answers:
Just put suntan lotion on if it's the sun your afraid of. Get olay complete. I have acne and use differin, and it is necessary for you to use this suntan lotion all the time, because differin makes you prone to uv rays which cause cancer. Don't discontinue it, or else it will not take effect as fast.

Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight. Differin topical may increase the sensitivity of your skin to sunlight. Wait till you get back off vacation or you will be sorry. Also if you get sunburned or windburned, Don't use the cream.

yes of course. just apply it on the affected areas at nights non stop until the bumps disappear

No, don't stop using it. I know they reccomend that, but I never had any problems with it, make sure to use a non-oily sunscreen as neccessary.

I was prescribed Differin and Klaron lotion for my achne from my skin doctor. The Differin dries out my face pretty bad so I can't use it every day. But, it does pretty good at stopping zits from coming to the surface.
