Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hi.
As per your case history of retinoid dermatitis, my treatment advice is -
1. Avoid sun exposure and use a good sunscreen lotion with spf more than 30.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic cream like fusiderm cream twice daily on affected skin.
3. Take a vitamin c supplement once daily for 1 month.
4. It is not advisable to apply topical steroid on face without consulting a dermatologist.
5. Once redness is resolved, then you can go for comedone extraction.

Thanks.
