Altretno is a prescription retinoid lotion (tretinoin 0.05%) which blends premium hydrating ingredients with clinical-strength tretinoin.
Tretinoin, a concentration of pure retinoid acid, increases skin cell turnover and is is clinically proven and FDA-approved to treat acne. It also addresses the signs of photoaging.
Apply a pea-size amount and spread it evenly on the skin after cleansing nightly. You may want to work up to every night use to allow your skin to get accustomed to the active ingredient. Daily sun protection is essential when using a retinoid, and this should not be used while pregnant or nursing.
Clinical studies demonstrate a 50% reduction in acne lesions by 12 weeks, and only 1% of users reported skin irritation.
