Acne Feedback: No — there are “retinols”, which are far less potent forms of Vitamin A, and these are available in moisturizers. If you’re too young for wrinkles and don’t have acne, then you shouldn’t be using Retin-A. It can be very irritating to some people with sensitive skin and makes you more prone to sunburn with sun exposure.
If you’re worried about wrinkles, use sunscreen every day — that is what dermatologists recommend for preventing wrinkles since most wrinkles are due to sun exposure.
Acne Feedback: retino a 25%and retino a50%,are the two creams available by janssen,no lotion is available,hence you ve to stick to the cream only.
Acne Feedback: If you are looking for home remedy to reduce wrinkles, try this.
Smear honey on your face and leave it for as long as possible (but 5-10mins a day will do). then rinse off with tepid water mixed with a teaspoon of cider vinegar - this has a neutral pH and will act as a toner.
And if you have some bucks, Lifecell anti wrinkle cream would be a good choice. You can have more information here.
