Directions for Retin A usage? (Photos)

Thank you for your question. Tretinoin is the generic name for Retin A, so yes, it is the same. 0.1% Tretinoin/Retin A is the strongest prescribed strength. If you have already been using this strength, I recommend you continue. Ultimately, if your skin can tolerate it, you should be applying a pea size amount of Tretinoin/Retin A 0.1% over your entire face and neck, every night. In combination, you need to be on an appropriate anti-aging skin care regimen, including sunscreen, to begin experiencing the best results. Certain chemical peels, laser treatments, injectables and cosmetic surgery can also be extremely beneficial for firming and improving your appearance. My recommendation is to schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon and get informed on all your options. I hope this was helpful.
