Tretinoin 0.05% Cream is a medicine that is used to treat cystic acne. It is also known as all-trans retinoic acid (a vitamin A derivative). It unclogs congested follicles and keeps the skin pores clear. It eliminates dead skin cells by promoting cell turnover and collagen formation, resulting in skin that appears younger and brighter.

How tretinoin 0.05% cream is generally used
- Speak to a pharmacist or doctor and read the product label before starting.
- Cleanse the skin gently and wait until it is completely dry.
- Use a pea-sized amount for the intended area and spread a thin layer. Keep it away from the eyes, lips, nostrils and broken skin.
- Start slowly, such as on alternate nights if advised, and increase only as your skin tolerates it and your clinician recommends.
- If dryness develops, use a gentle moisturiser and apply sunscreen during the day. This is general information, not a personal prescription.
- Stop and seek advice if severe redness, peeling, pain or swelling develops.
Who should speak to a clinician first
Speak to a pharmacist or doctor before using tretinoin if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding. Ask for advice if you are new to retinoids, have very sensitive or broken skin, are unsure which strength to use or develop persistent irritation. Do not increase the amount or frequency without professional guidance.
Frequently asked questions
What is Tretiheal cream?
Tretiheal is a 20G cream with tretinoin 0.05%, produced by Healing Pharma. It appears in the Tretinoin category. In the UK, tretinoin is prescription-only, so speak to a pharmacist or doctor about your skin, medical history and intended use before starting.
What strength is Tretiheal?

Can Tretiheal be used with other skincare?
Some skincare combinations can increase dryness or irritation. Ask a pharmacist or doctor before using Tretiheal with strong exfoliating acids, other retinoids or other acne treatments. Keep the routine gentle while your skin adjusts. If professional advice supports changes, introduce one at a time.

Tretinoin Usage Guide for beginners:
Step 1: Start Low
- Begin with the 0.025% concentration, especially if you've never used Tretinoin or Retin-A before.
Step 2: Apply at Night
- Use Tretinoin as the final step in your nighttime routine.
- Apply a pea-sized amount to your face, avoiding:
- Corners of the nose
- Mouth
- Lips (as these areas are more sensitive).

- Use a broad-spectrum SPF50 sunscreen during the day.
- Avoid prolonged sun exposure.
Step 4: Moisturize
- Combat dryness by:
- Using a hydrating moisturizer after Tretinoin or as part of your daytime routine.
Step 5: Consult & Educate

Hi Collette, Thank you for your review. Your products arrived. If you felt really uncomfortable regarding the payment method, I do not understand why you was happy to pay by link & then leave me negative feedback on here which will damage my business. If you expressed to me you was unhappy about the payment system, I would of not taken payment, you have been a great return customer, thank you
