It can be used to treat mild to moderately severe acne and is especially effective for those with comedonal acne (many blackheads and whiteheads). Retin-A (Tretinoin) is a topical treatment commonly prescribed to treat skin conditions such as acne (acne vulgaris) and keratosis pilaris, as well as acute promyelocytic leukemia and hyperpigmentation.
