Tretinoin Cream.
Anti-aging cream that clears tone, texture, and early wrinkles
Prescription retinoid cream. The gold-standard active for photoaging — fine lines, uneven tone, texture, and acne-prone skin — applied at night. Stronger than over-the-counter retinol. Your clinician sets how often you start and how you build.

Start slow. Use SPF.
Tretinoin works slowly and can irritate skin at first. Start with the schedule your clinician gives you and protect your skin from the sun every day.
- 01Nightly on clean, dry skin
Start slow if your clinician says so — a few nights a week, then nightly.
- 02Expect an adjustment window
Dryness, peeling, or redness for about 2–4 weeks is common. Moisturize. It usually settles.
- 03Daily broad-spectrum SPF is required
Use it every day while using tretinoin.
- 04Not for pregnancy, trying to conceive, or breastfeeding
Tell your clinician if any of these apply to you.
- 05Rx not guaranteed
A licensed clinician reviews every consultation.
- 06Compounded to your prescription
Pharmacy-dispensed as prescribed.
Pairs with: Copper peptide (GHK-Cu) is often used mornings or on off nights to support the barrier while adjusting to tretinoin — clinician-directed; do not layer at the same time.
