    Product Information

    Who it's for
    Anyone looking to prevent or treat wrinkles, fine lines, dark spots, or discoloration can benefit from bringing Tretinoin into their skincare routine. It should not be used by women who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
    Benefits
    Tretinoin boosts collagen production and encourages the renewal of skin cells, which help improve skin tone and texture, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and lighten dark spots for brighter, smoother skin.
    What to expect
    Results:
  • When using Tretinoin, patience and consistency is key.

  • In the first 2-4 weeks, your skin experiences many changes — oil glands shrinking, dry skin cells shedding, and collagen production increasing. While this happens, you might notice a temporary increase in dryness or acne that will go away with continued use.

  • After 3-6 weeks, you’ll notice visibly smoother skin with a more even tone. At this point, your skin will have adjusted to the Tretinoin.

  • After 12 weeks, your skin’s collagen is working overtime, beginning to smooth out fine lines and brighten the skin’s surface.

  • In 6 months, you’ll notice visibly reduced wrinkles, fine lines, and dark spots, with refreshed skin that will continue to improve over time.

  • Downsides:
  • Tretinoin can cause some dryness and irritation, but this usually goes away over time and can be avoided by starting at a low dose.

  • Safety information
    We do not prescribe Tretinoin to anyone who is pregnant or nursing.
