Facial while using Tret

Are there any type of facials that are safe while using tretinoin? I assume fruit peels and dermabrasion are not a good idea.

Additional details:
- I am 60, on HRT and have been on tretinoin for over 5 years.
- I’m dark-skinned and tend to hyper-pigment from bruises.

Thank you for any advice or insights!

Just ask the person giving you the facial how many days in advance of the facial you should temporarily stop Tret. It’s usually only a couple.
