Deriva CMS gel is a topical retinoid treatment that contains adapalene, which can help reduce acne. Initial Breakout or Purge: Yes, it's common for Deriva CMS gel to cause an initial breakout or "purge" phase, especially during the first 2-4 weeks of treatment. This can manifest as: 1. Increased redness and inflammation 2. More noticeable acne lesions 3. Skin sensitivity or irritation This initial breakout is usually a sign that the treatment is working, as it pushes underlying blockages and bacteria to the surface. Pre-Wedding Concerns: Given your upcoming wedding, it's understandable that you're concerned about the potential initial breakout. However, it's essential to remember that: 1. The initial breakout is usually temporary and subsides within a few weeks. 2. Deriva CMS gel can help improve your skin's appearance and reduce acne in the long run.
