Is it worth using Retin A once every week for anti-aging?

48 yo Asian wo. Retin A 0.025% for 8 yrs by PCP for hormonal acne. Even after all this time I still only use it once a week because I peel post 3-6 days, no redness or sensitivity. Now I have hit menopause and acne no longer an issue, is it worth keeping the weekly tx for anti aging benefit? The flaking is bad enough I schedule my week around it. I tried the Micro, waited an hour after washing, moisturizer before and/or after but no dice. I use so little, a tube lasts me more than a year. Tx!
