Product Description:
Retin-A Micro® Tretinoin Gel 0.04% is a dermatologist-recommended topical retinoid designed to treat mild to moderate acne. This gel formulation uses a patented microsphere delivery system, ensuring gradual release of Tretinoin into the skin to reduce irritation while maximizing acne-fighting benefits.
The result is a more even skin tone, reduced breakouts, unclogged pores, and smoother skin texture. Retin-A Micro is also valued for its anti-aging benefits, such as reducing fine lines and hyperpigmentation over time.
