   Purpose, Prevention & Protection

   • My evidence-based care plan to treat acne, prevent clogged pores, and use tretinoin safely and consistently.
   • I know my acne may look worse at first and steady improvement often takes 6–12 weeks
   • I expect some mild dryness, redness, peeling, or stinging while my skin adjusts
   • I tell my provider about eczema, sunburn, very sensitive skin, pregnancy, or breastfeeding
