Tretinoin (Prescription-Strength Retinoid, E.g., Retin-A) In Pakistan

The prescription-strength retinoid that outperforms OTC options for both anti-aging and acne treatment – backed by decades of clinical research.

Why Dermatologists Swear By It:

Proven to reverse photoaging (unlike most skincare)
Stimulates collagen 3x more effectively than retinol
FDA-approved for acne AND wrinkles
Gold standard for treating acne scars & hyperpigmentation.

What to Expect:

Week 1-3: Redness/flaking (normal!)

Week 4-8: "Purging" possible (push through!)

Week 12+: Glowing, clearer, firmer skin

Not For You If:

Pregnant/breastfeeding

Using other actives (AHAs/BHAs) without doctor approval

Unwilling to commit to nightly SPF.

Alternatives:

Adapalene 0.3% (Differin) – OTC option
Tazarotene – Stronger alternative
