Can retinol and/tretinoin deepen nasolabial folds? Not the actual wrinkles but the volume (under cheeks shadow). (Photo)

Asked By:skinenthusiast23 in Quebec, QC

I'm definitely prone to nasolabial folds but GOD... I'm only 23 and have those big under cheeks shadows that seems to be getting quickly worst even though I have a skin care routine and properly use gua sha. I just read about someone having their undereye deepened because of tretinoine. Would it be the same with naso folds and retinol? The photo is not the best but you can see what I mean.
