Tretinoin is a topical retinoid that increases skin cell turnover, helping clear pores and smooth uneven texture. Over time, it stimulates collagen production and softens the look of fine lines. It’s a gold-standard treatment for acne and visible signs of sun-related aging.
With consistent use and dermatology guidance, tretinoin can reduce breakouts, treat fine lines and wrinkles, and support long term skin health.
Your dermatology provider will review your skin and customize strength and frequency before prescribing.

Tretinoin is typically used long term. Many patients see improvement within a few months, with continued benefits over time when used consistently.
