What are Potential Problems While Using Retin-A?

December 20, 2011
Asked By:Pianist in USA

I've read that Retin-A or other forms of tretinoin cream when applied to the face can cause "skin cancer" or other undesirable results. How accurate are these claims and does anyone know if they can affect health in the long-term (the topical creams only)? Thanks.
