Retino-A 0.025% Cream To Treat Acne

Retino-A Cream is a form of vitamin A that is used to treat acne which appears as spots or pimples on your face, chest, or back. It also helps to smooth rough facial skin and to reduce fine wrinkles on the skin.

Retino-A Cream reduces excessive oil production of the skin. Ideally, a pinpoint application at nighttime is recommended for the duration prescribed by your doctor. The amount you need and for how long you need to take it will depend on what you are being treated for. You should normally wash and dry the affected area before applying a thin layer of this medicine. Follow your doctor’s instructions. You should not apply it to damaged or broken skin and avoid contact with your mouth, eyes, and nose. It may take several weeks for your symptoms to improve but keep using it regularly to get the most benefit. Consult your doctor again if you do not notice any improvement after a few weeks. Using more medicine or applying it more often than prescribed will not make it work any faster and may increase the side effects.

The most common side effects include irritation, dryness, and redness of the skin. They are usually mild and improve as your body gets used to the medicine. Drink plenty of water and use moisturizer as it may lead to dryness of the mouth, lips, and eyes. Let your doctor know if these side effects bother you or do not go away. Serious side effects with this medicine are rare.

Working

Retino-A cream contains tretinoin which is an active metabolite of Vitamin A and is a keratolytic medication that affects the way skin cells behave, reducing symptoms of acne as well as age spots and fine wrinkles caused by sun damage and aging. Retino-A cream 0.05% prevents formation of new pimples and blackheads (comedones) by blocking the hardening processes of the outer skin layer (keratinisation and cornification) and increasing the shedding of old hardened skin cells, while at the same time promoting growth of new skin cells. The combined effect of these actions is to speed up skin cell turnover, clear up pimples and blackheads and reduce the spread of acne. This also works for aging or damaged skin where age spots and fine wrinkles are replaced by new skin cells giving the effect of lightening and smoothing the skin.

 

Dosage

RETINO A is usually applied to the face once a day in the evening, following steps listed below:

  • Gently wash your face with a mild soap
  • Pat the skin dry and wait 20-30 minutes before applying RETINO A
  • Take a small amount of this medicine (the size of a pearl about ¼ inch or 5mm diameter) on your fingertip and apply to your face
  • This should be enough to cover your affected area lightly
  • Be careful when applying RETINO A to avoid your eyes, ears, nostrils, angles of the nose and mouth

FAQs

What is Retino A cream used for?

Retino-A 0.025% Cream is a form of vitamin A that is used to treat acne which appears as spots or pimples on your face, chest, or back. It also helps to smooth rough facial skin and to reduce fine wrinkles on the skin

Is Retino A the same as Retin-A?

Although they work in similar ways, retinol is not the same as Retin-A. Some may call retinol an over-the-counter version of Retin-A, but they aren't interchangeable. Technically, retinol and Retin-A do the same thing.

Can Retino A be used on face?

The bottom line. Tretinoin is a very commonly prescribed topical medication used to treat a severe type of acne called cystic acne. In addition to acne, some doctors use it to reduce fine wrinkles on the face, as well as skin darkening and roughness. Tretinoin is generally safe but should not be used by some people.

Does retino whiten skin?

However, retino does remove dead skin cells revealing a more even complexion. So retinol won't lighten your skin, but retinol will help even/blend out any hyperpigmentation. If hyperpigmentation is a top concern for you, we recommend trying a product with arbutin, azelaic acid, AHAs (i.e. glycolic acid) or vitamin C.

Can Retino A damage the skin?

While retinoids—including Retino-A are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), this doesn't mean they are free from side effects. People who use retinols commonly experience dry and irritated skin, especially after using a new product. Other side effects may include redness, itchiness, and peeling skin.

Does Retino A make you age faster?

No, it's not. It's just an adjustment process. For the record, no study proved that there's been any skin damage or signs of 'faster aging' caused solely by retinol.

How Retino A changed my skin?

RetinoA (the umbrella term for all vitamin-A derivatives, like Retino A) sink into your skin and trigger faster cell turnover and collagen production, creating newer, smoother, skin. And all of that means pores stay clear, breakouts diminish, fine lines soften, and acne scars fade.

How long should you take Retino-A?

You should continue to use your Retino-A cream 0.05% for the full course of treatment as directed by your doctor. You should see improvement within 2 to 3 weeks, but it may take more than 6 weeks before you see definite beneficial effects.

Missed dose of Retino-A?

If you miss a dose of Retino-A cream 0.05%, take it as soon as you remember, unless it is time to apply the next dose, then skip the missed dose. Do not take a double dose.

How should Retino-A be stored?

You should store your Retino-A cream 0.05% at temperatures below 25°C.
