Usage

Retin A is a prescription medication used for acne, sun-damaged skin, and fine wrinkles (source). It reduces the appearance of fine wrinkles and smooths rough facial skin. It also lightens the skin, replaces old skin with new skin, and slows down the way your body removes skin cells that are harmed by the sun. Retin A is made from Vitamin A and comes as a cream, gel, and micro gel. Tretinoin belongs to the class of medications called retinoids. It works by refreshing skin cells by normalizing skin cell turnover, stimulating collagen, and reducing dark spots and wrinkles (source).

It is crucial to take the medication exactly as your doctor prescribes or refer to the package insert. Please consult with your doctor for personalized advice.
