About Tretinoin
Tretinoin , an acidic form of Citamin A is responsible for how skin cells develop. Specifically, tretinion increases the speed of skin cell production and suppresses the creation of cells that are responsible for producing pigments. The new skin cells are thus evenly coloured, are radiant and appear younger with no apparent wrinkles. The products are available in cream as well as gel form in various concentrations.
Applications and use if Tretinoin
Using tretinoin may result in flaking and redness of the skin. This is however no cause of worry and rather indicated that the product is working properly by creating new cells and removing all ones. These symptoms however must subside in ten days. The skin sensitivity to sunlight will also increase and thus a high protecting sun screen must be used at all times and exposure to sun must be avoided.
The product should be applied at night and must be removed after half an hour of application. You must not expect immediate results as they will be evident only after 9 to 12 weeks of daily application and continue to improve for months from them. It will however not treat or reverse aging skin or sun damage to your skin. The FDA recommends pregnant women against the use of tretinoin and use must also be avoided by women wishing to conceive.
