Topical tretinoin or retina-a should have no impact on your injectable filler. You might get some redness using the retina-a which is normal and some peeling but other than that your filler should be ok.
Tretinoin is applied topically and does not affect any deep layers below the epidermis. So any type of fillers are not affected by tretinoin.
Tretinoin will not affect fillers which are injected into the skin. Using tretinoin will prevent superficial wrinkles and therefore is a must in anti aging skin care.
Thanks for your question and as a dermatologist we routinely recommend retinoids as topical therapy for skin aging and photodamage. Fillers are injected deeper in the skin than most retinoids will penetrate and may enhance the results over time so find the right provider and learn all there is to learn about fillers and good skin care.

I'm sorry to hear you're not happy with your injection. I think you should go back to your injector for a follow up with your injector and discuss your concerns about the lips. Yes, you may have to have more injected and a different product that is more hydrophyllic. However, more hydophyllic ...
Fillers should not cause an eye infection. It is likely from another cause. Good luck and hope it clears soon.
This is certainly attainable and you will get there. While inconvenient to keep going back to your doctor, I will say that sometimes it's best to treat little by little so as not to overdo it and this way you will achieve the most natural look possible. It is a careful balance because the lips...
It is common to have swelling and some bruising for a couple weeks after fillers, so it's still too soon to tell what your final results will be. If the swelling persists, be sure to return to your physician (or see a cosmetic dermatologist and facial sculpting expert) for a formal evaluation....
Thanks for your question. I suggest you see an experienced injector where you can use your certificate to pay for part of the treatment and you may have to cover the rest out of pocket to get the results you want. Most of my patients, start out with 1 syringe. Restylane and Juvederm are...
