Hello lybrate-user I understand your problem. Tretin 0.05% is mild for treating acne and spots. You need a stronger treatment. Tretin can be used as a maintenance cream. I will need to see your face so that I can prescribe the proper medication. You may start an online consult for that. Meanwhile you can use a good gel based sunscreen to protect your skin from sun. Take care:)
