Whether it's retinoids, retinols, retinals - it seems like everywhere you look, these ingredients are being discussed in the world of skincare. I think it's time you got a full explanation of the topic!

Hi Doc, thanks for the video! Now I got a bit confuded, what is stronger Adaptalene 0,1% or tretinoin 1 mg/kg? I am using since 3 months tretinoin 0,5 mg/g and would like to update to a stronger retinoid. Here in the Netherlands we have no right of going to a dermatologist for aestetic reasons. Only for real patologies. Therefore unfortunally I keep looking for information online.

My dad is a dermatologist. He explain it simply retinoid "burns" your outer skin until it peels of so the new, younger skin cells can grow and replace your old outer skin. So it's natural to feel discomfort at early stage of the medication. And it's gonna be worth all the pain. No pain no gain, baby

@darinakulish1128 Год назад

Quite interesting, I was using retinoids in pills for quite a long time (prescribed) and they (obviously) were working in a different way. They were kinda sucking wet/fat out of my skin/pores therefore removing oiliness of skin. I am curious why retinols should work in a different way? I though they’re the same thing, but gentler.

@asmae5770 Год назад

@@abd12459 try first using a gentle cleanser and then let your skin dry for more than 20mins cuz before this duration ,applying tretinoin can irritat your skin Apply tretinoin, you need just a bit And then sleeps or do whatever you want and then wash your face gently and let you face dry for 20mins and then apply your moisture cuz before this duration it's gonna affect the tretinoin efficiency.

@cutazabutton 6 месяцев назад

I’ve worked in Dermatology for 25 years and this is hands down the best explanation for 1. Why you should use it- the benefits 2. The side effects 3. The method 4. The products. The only thing I would add-never apply a retinol or Retin A product on your face when your skin is moist from cleansing. Wait at least 10 minutes. This will reduce irritation considerably.

@Mardi-Shorts-DevonGirlUK Год назад

I'm a Sunday Riley 'Luna' and A+ retinol user too and I love it. I love the Luna oil the best as it's gentle start and then you add the A+ as your skin gets used to it. I also recommend Good genes which is Glycolic acid in the morning (or Lactic Acid in the States I think). Another great retinol oil to try is Medik 8. They have different strengths so start low and build as your skin adjusts. I'm heading a few years towards 50 so since turned 40 have been obsessed with trying 'lux' skin care samples etc (I'm on a budget 😊). Most of the luxury skin care stuff is marketing and just BS talk. However, it's about the whole ritual self care routine then sometimes it's nice to have a particular treat. But don't expect miracles. Genes, what you eat, drinking alcohol, Sun and lifestyle are a massive part of how your skin looks as you age. Apologies for the waffle. Retinol has been the game changer for me as it has for many people. And yes, Sunday Riley is such a lovely brand ❤️

The first dermatologist that put me on Tretinoin had it high and to often. I stopped using it fairly quickly. Then switched to another highly recommended Dermatologist near me who listened to why I did not want it and took the time to explain like you do in your video. This dermatologist started me on a lower dosage only twice a week and slowly brought the amount per week up. I just turned 60 y/o this year and easily pass for my early 40's. I personally didn't notice any difference until one day around 6 months I suddenly realized I had great facial skin. I do my face, neck, entire chest, and both hands.

I started using it on my neck and had to endure a couple of weeks of redness, dryness and flaking. All good now.

I started using Tretinoin a couple of months back because none of the more expensive skin care seem to work as described on the packaging. I did go through the ugly peeling phase, with extreme dryness on my skin (my natural skin type: Oily acne prone). I had watched Dr Dray mention the timeline for Retinoic Acids to work Or start showing desirable results (roughly 6weeks plus minus depending on usage). And yes after 6 weeks, my skin stopped peeling and it became really radiant and smooth. My previously 'started to form" fine lines had disappeared (im 26). I swear this is the only additional product you need in your skin care, on top of cleanser and moisturiser. I recommend trying if you can get your hands on Retinoic Acids.

I just found your channel. Wow, was it a breath of fresh air. I just watched a video of a couple people (a scientist and dermatologist) making the argument of the cons (especially thinning of the skin) of using retina A. I have been a tretinoin user for at least 20 years. My skin looks better now than it did in my 40's. No freckling, no wrinkle lines and I am 66. I do use other ingredients but were long started after the tretinoin. I'm sure I am using products in the morning that are not necessary, but the skincare world makes you feel as though it is. If there is no proof the other products really help, I'd love to know if you have other videos to refer to. I use VC, Matrixyl 3000, COQ10, HA, a couple others, but not all at the same time and all in the morning. And of course, sunscreen every day! Thanks for easing my mind with this video.

I'm so happy you actually made this video. I struggled with a heap of over the counter retinoid products, they irritated my skin because they had fragrance or alcohols etc. Retinol too... I got kinami7 retinoid which is clinical strength retin A which doesn't irritate my skin. Absolutely love it and so affordable. I really recommend retinoid for anyone who is looking at a " natural" way to slow aging. I don't use botox or the sort.

An oncologist here! 30 turning 31 this April. Started using 0.05% tretinoin at 27. And anyone meeting me tells me i can pass for a final year Medical student(around 22-23 years old) . Some friends even have told me that i am going back in time! So yeah it's the best decision i made so far including it in my skin care routine. Edit: Main difference is felt when you hit ur 40s and 50s as 22 and 30 are not so far apart. But I have seen people using tretinoin with really good skin in 40 and 50s.

I'm using tret, which is a stronger version of retinoid. You can get this without a prescription in Catalonia, Spain but not in the other parts of Spain. I tried it for a first time 7-8 months ago, it was a disaster! I was peeling, feeling red, dry, like I had a allergy....all the bad things and I gave up eventually. Two months later I started it again, but this time I was prepared about the side effects and I started it with a clear schedule - the first month I applied it every third night, the second month - every other night, on the third month every night. I'm now in the second month and haven't experienced such bad side effects, it's bearable 😊 Still, I haven't seen any improvements of the skin, some days I feel like even my skin looks worse, but I'm patient enough to wait and see in a couple of months or even half a year before judging.

@christarkt8439 Год назад

I think you’re supposed to use one pea sized amount for your whole entire face ( I know it sounds impossible to spread all over but you can spread it everywhere) as to avoid using too much product which will lead to more irritation and sensitisation.

Your skin will peel and burn on your very use but a good moisturizer should help, like Neutrogena gel (it’s in a blue jar) and tatcha. I used to use once in every few days since it was burning my skin, which didn’t help much. But now over time my skin got use to it and works great.
