    My experience with this has been so good. I've been on it and doryx for two months and my face feels so much suppler. I use it at night, once a day.

    A lot of peeling and severe burning when I eat. I have only been using it for 9 days and my face is so much better.the medication seems to cause the most pain where my acne is the worse. I will see it through because my skin looks healthier than I could ever remember and it is working just maybe a little painful. I can deal with that vs. not wanting to leave the Ouse because I am 36 with ace.

    It's too soon to really see any effects of this drug yet or know if it's working, but I have some useful info: I've been using Veltin for about a week and a half now, and I have not had any more redness or burning like others. I had previously used a tretinoin gel (so I think that's why Veltin wasn't as much of a peeling, painful shock to my skin) and dermatologist gave me ... Show Full Comment
