I've been constantly hearing about the ROC Multi-Correxion Night Treatment, so I'll give it a try. Hopefully it won't cause me terrible side effects, worth a try though. Thanks! Great!

Although if in 4 weeks you haven't seen even a slight improvement I'm not sure it's a good idea to keep using it. Prescription retinoid creams are "stronger" than cosmetic retinoid creams so maybe switching to a cosmetic cream may work better for you. It may not irritate your skin as much. Keep in mind though that some people just can't use retinoids as their skin just can't get used to them so if you don't see an improvement soon or even cosmetic creams don't work for you, it will better to stop using retinoids altogether.

I've read it can take up till 3 months for the flaking to disappear. Is that true? Note that I'm using a prescription retinoid, not a beauty creme... I wonder if should continue this experiment?

I'm sorry you're experiencing some side effects. How long have you been using the cream for? The flakes and peeling occur because skin needs time to get used to retinol but if you've been using it for a few weeks it may just be that this ingredient isn't suitable for your skin type.
