A-Ret Gel contains Tretinoin, a topical retinoid used to treat acne, fine wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation. It works by promoting skin cell turnover, helping to clear clogged pores, reduce acne, and improve overall skin texture.
Mechanism of action:
Tretinoin binds to retinoic acid receptors in the skin, which stimulates cell turnover and prevents the formation of comedones (clogged pores). It also promotes collagen production, which can reduce fine lines and improve skin elasticity over time.
Uses:
-
Acne vulgaris (blackheads, whiteheads, pimples)
-
Fine lines and wrinkles
-
Hyperpigmentation or dark spots
-
Improves skin texture and tone
Adverse effects:
Common side effects include redness, dryness, peeling, itching, and mild burning or stinging at the application site. Sun sensitivity is increased, so sun protection is important. Rarely, severe irritation or allergic reactions may occur.
