Important Information
For retinoids to work, you must use them on a continuous basis. You may also need to switch products over time.
Retinoids are used for fine lines and wrinkles. These types of wrinkles develop in the surface of your skin. If you’re trying to target deep wrinkles, talk to your dermatologist to discuss the different options available to you.
How a retinoid is formulated can also affect how effective it is. For example, alcohol-based gels are considered the most effective of all formulations because of how easily the skin absorbs them. They’re also suitable for acne-prone skin.
If you have more mature or dry skin, your skin might react more favorably to the nourishing effects of cream-based retinoids.
Although retinoids are effective, their strength also has a downside: potential side effects. Dryness and irritation are possible, especially when you first start using the products.
You’re also more likely to experience side effects if you’re using multiple anti-aging products at one time.
When introducing a new product, you may be able to reduce your risk of side effects by applying the product every other night and gradually working up to a nightly application.
You may also reduce your risk of side effects by using products with lower retinoid concentration and gradually increasing the strength as needed.
If your side effects continue, discontinue use. You may need to switch to a different retinoid or try a different anti-aging method.
Sunburn is another possible side effect of using retinoids. Over time, you may also put yourself at risk for age spots. You can counteract these risk factors by wearing a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily.
Don’t use retinoids if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding.
Prescription Skin Care FAQ
Retinoids are one of the most Trusted Source widely researched anti-aging ingredients available. Given this, it’s no surprise that this class of vitamin A derivatives is often touted as the gold standard for reducing fine lines, wrinkles, large pores, and more.
it’s important to understand how retinoids work and which retinoids are best suited for your skin care goals. Although many retinoids are available over the counter (OTC), Our Nurse prescriber can prescribe stronger formulas tailored to your needs.
Retinoids are made from vitamin A derivatives. They work by neutralizing free radicals in the skin that may be causing collagen damage.
Collagen is essential to strong, youthful-looking skin. As you age, your body begins to produce less collagen and elastin. Your body also begins to break down your collagen, elastin, and fat stores. This can contribute to thin and sagging skin, fine lines, and wrinkles.
In addition to preserving your collagen stores, retinoids can also promote new collagen production.
This may help “fill in” or reduce the appearance of existing wrinkles and help prevent new ones from forming.
