Retin-A Cream contains 0.05% tretinoin, a powerful topical retinoid derived from vitamin A. This prescription-strength treatment is renowned for its transformative effects on skin health, primarily targeting acne, signs of aging, and overall skin texture improvement.

Retin-A Cream is indicated for:
- Treating moderate to severe acne
- Reducing fine lines and wrinkles

How It Works
Tretinoin works by binding to retinoic acid receptors in skin cells, accelerating cellular turnover. This process increases collagen production, promotes skin exfoliation, and prevents pore blockage, leading to significant skin transformation.
Duration of Action
Initial improvements become visible after 4-6 weeks of consistent use. Optimal results typically develop over 3-6 months of continuous application.
