I've been using Acne Medication 10% Gel for about a month to treat my acne, and while I'm seeing some improvement, my skin is incredibly dry and flaky. I'm not sure if this is normal or if I should be concerned. I've been applying it every other day, as suggested by my dermatologist. I've considered moisturizing more, but I'm worried it will make the acne worse. Can someone who's had success with this gel share their experience? Also, how do you handle the dryness and peeling? I've noticed the peeling is more intense in some areas where my acne is worst. I'm desperate to find a balance between treating my acne and keeping my skin from feeling like the Sahara. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
