My daughter is using differin gel and its helped a lot with the kp on her face, and also the acne. It took about 3-4 weeks for things to really start working. Be advised, it dries the heck out of your face, it can be itchy, and it also made my daughters face really red the first few weeks. It actually made her acne worse to begin with, but we were told this would happen ahead of time by our doctor. Also, we got a rebate back from the Differen site, you may want to check and see if they are still running this if you are going to try differin. It is kind of pricey for such a small tube.

Yes, I ordered it through internet without prescription but I found it weak, Murad has a Glycolic acid with salicylic acid works better, goe to www.Murad.com

It's not bad - I use the cream rather than the gel and it's not that drying. I find it less harsh and thus more easy to tolerate than retin-a. I haven't used it long enough for dramatic benefits - sometimes it takes as long as six months to see a great deal of change.
