It is normal that in the first days of using Epiduo Forte can cause worsening of skin problems - an increase in the amount of pimples, irritation and tension of the skin. In this case, you should especially take care of rebuilding the hydrolipid barrier of the skin at night and moisturizing it, which will certainly help to endure irritation and tension. I wrote about it here: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/app/kategorie/dermokosmetyki-do-skory-suchej If after a week you do not notice any improvement, you should consult a doctor - he may decide to reduce the frequency of applying the gel, temporarily or completely stop treatment.
