Q&A

How do I start using tretinoin?

Consult with a dermatologist and start with a low concentration. Begin by using it every other day and gradually increase frequency as tolerated.

What are the benefits of tretinoin for anti-aging?

Tretinoin stimulates collagen production, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, improves skin texture and tone, and fades dark spots and sun damage.

Can tretinoin irritate the skin?

Yes, tretinoin can cause initial dryness, redness, and flaking. It's important to start slowly, use a gentle moisturizer, and avoid harsh skincare products.

What other skincare products should I use with tretinoin?

A gentle cleanser, a moisturizer, and a broad-spectrum sunscreen are essential when using tretinoin. Additional products like vitamin C or niacinamide can also enhance the results.

How long does it take to see results with tretinoin?

Results vary, but noticeable improvements in skin texture, tone, and fine lines can be seen within a few months of consistent use. Continuous use leads to more significant long-term benefits.
