How it is generally used
- Speak to a pharmacist or doctor before use and read the directions on the gel packaging.
- Wash your hands and gently clean the intended area. Let the skin dry fully before applying the gel.
- Use a small, pea-sized amount if that matches your professional or label guidance. Apply a thin layer.
- Avoid the eyes, lips, corners of the nose and broken or irritated skin. Rinse with water after accidental contact.
- If you are new to 0.05% tretinoin gel, start slowly and change frequency only with professional advice.
- Use sunscreen during the day. Stop and seek advice if severe irritation, swelling or persistent discomfort develops.
Tretinoin may cause dryness, peeling, redness, stinging or irritation. A moisturiser may help with dryness, but ask a professional before adding other active products. Do not apply extra gel to force faster changes.
Who should speak to a clinician first
Speak to a pharmacist or doctor before using this medicine if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding.

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

- 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

I would highly recommend Tretonin World! I contacted the seller (I don’t know her name sorry!), and she was very informative and helped me choose my products.
There was a little mix up with my order and although the wrong percentage was sent, the the seller immediately rectified this graciously and sent out the other product within a day!
I have been using my Tretinoin for about 2 weeks now and it is working it’s magic already.
Definitely my new supplier. Lots of great products at great prices and no dreaded subscriptions! Easy peasy order process too!

This is why I have given 5 stars…
