Apply a pea-sized amount of tretinoin gel 0.1% to clean, dry skin once daily, ideally at night. Gently massage the gel until fully absorbed.
Begin with application every other night for the first few weeks to allow your skin to adjust. Gradually increase the frequency to nightly use as tolerated. Observe your skin’s reaction; if irritation occurs, reduce the frequency or temporarily discontinue use.
Avoid applying tretinoin to broken or irritated skin. Protect treated skin from sun exposure with a broad-spectrum sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher, even on cloudy days. This significantly reduces the risk of sunburn and hyperpigmentation.
Important Note: Consult your dermatologist for personalized advice on application frequency and duration, especially if you have sensitive skin or pre-existing skin conditions.
Always follow your dermatologist’s specific instructions. This information is for guidance only and does not replace professional medical advice.
